Saw it Saturday, really enjoyed it.  Afterwards, I'll 
have to say, I was a little hard pressed to say it was
a "great" movie.  I've seen this movie before, but it
was called a different name - "2001: A Space Odessey".

And - what about when the ship got hit by micro meteors?!
Did they not practice Damage Control drills back on Earth?
It seems like the whole crew was stumbling around trying to
figure out what to do.	And a big "Thumbs Down" to the
actions of Gary Sinese's character.  His unnecessary 
bravado not only almost got him killed, but it wasted 25%
of the crew (the female crew member had no point but to
chase after him and get him to put on his helmet).
And what the hell were they doing with their helmets so
far away from them?!  And who designed the helmets?!
The current NASA helmets have faceplates that can open -
these did not!
