Just came back from seeing the movie, and thought it was excellent!
It is definitely not your traditional genre movie. It was very refreshing to see a Scifi that does not deal with an apocalyptic future, an invasion of aliens, or a constant series of battles in space. These last have become so boring that I often fast forward through them.
It developes smoothly, has an interesting story and a logical and satisfying ending (although I do wish there was a bit more info at the end). It would be a great date movie.
I caveat -- our IMAX was occupied by some Star something or other movie, so we saw it in a regular theatre with real 3D. Without glasses the screen did look blurry, but I noticed very little depth in the film at all. It could have been the projection I suppose, but if this level of 3D is all the movie has to offer, I don't think I would bother to see it in that format.
