It's different at home. The soundtrack was kind of a disappointment, I expected more oomph in some ways. But then, being realistic, there's no reason for noise most of the time, what with the isolation and the lack of air thing. I've just been feeling that soundtracks on most BDs have been getting lamer and lamer even as they use more sophisticated sound designs and encodings. I don't really have a problem with that, I hate overblown bombast for the sake of it, just gotta complain about something...

I don't mind the movie, very light, and I do appreciate the attempts at not dumbing down the science *too* much compared to usual, and giving some props to scientists/engineers/etc. I wouldn't have necessarily done everything the same way, what with all my experience on Mars and whatnot...
