...I saw it Tuesday.
I thought the acting and special effects/CGI were quite good. Noomi played a better--and more-sympathetic--hero than I thought her capable of.
I agree that some plot points were silly...the scientist trying to pet the 'snake', the ship having NO weapons, the presense of flamethrowers (on a science ship? What were they going to do with them--trim weeds and brush?).
BUT...overall highly entertaining. I can, indeed, appreciate these jillion-dollar CGI'd space operas, just as I appreciate and enjoy the little films about 'normal' people and their problems--'Around the Bend' and 'Off the Map', anyone?
