I love sci fi in all genres. I've enjoyed Bullock and Clooney in many movies and was hoping for a Hanks/Ryan or a modern-day Hepburn/Tracy mix. That being said, I had my doubts about this movie -- I just really don't see either of these two doing good sci fi. Wished I'd been wrong.

I'm glad a lot of people liked this movie and I wish I had been one of them; I was certainly hoping to be one of them. From comments I heard when leaving the theater, I'd say it was about 50-50. And I don't care if the scenery is a bunch of pretty trees, a gorgeous waterfall or earth from space -- it gets old fast when it's all you see, except for things floating in space stations.
