I just watched it and, I must admit, I was strongly impressed by quality and realism of long EVA sequences in 3D! I guess it's even more impressive if seen in IMAX (did someone had this opportunity?).
The movie contains several big inconsistencies (listed in my next "spoiler" post) but my personal rating is that it's one of the most realistic and spectacular space movies ever made...
I would like to hear other's impressions/observations...

N deG T also goes on to say he enjoyed it smile.gif

Part of me is looking forward to this movie as all reports I've heard are that it is utterly breathtaking

Part of me is dreading walking out at the end thinking "they went to all that trouble to make it breathtaking. it would have taken no more effort to make it breathtaking AND accurate"

And all of me just wants to enjoy a movie and wishes people would stop applying documentary like criticism to a piece of pure entertainment.
