The movie was visually stunning. It had a better than average storyline and concept. However, this is one of the few times where I thought the music (yup - the MUSIC) got in the way. We saw the movie in IMAX to experience it... Not just watch it. Truthfully the music was often too loud and interfered with the dialog.... or in a scene where silence (or the sound of space) would have been much better. It actually got annoying on occasion. Other use of sound was fine. You'll feel the rocket launch, as if you were there in person. Otherwise, a really good movie. They'll be lots to discuss with other moviegoers after you've seen this one.
