Reading Mark Kelly's comments from a preview, as well as Gary Westfahl's in-depth Locus Online review makes me wish that all cinema types would do two things.

First, they should refrain from being influenced by 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Second, they should read some science fiction. And some science. Lots of science.

Sigh. Some of the reviews I've read have been absolutely gushing. But like those folks who have "discovered" the remade Battlestar Galactica and gush how it really isn't science fiction, they just show their ignorance of the genre.

Given the comments in the two links, I'll pass. Time for another good book instead and I'll avoid stale popcorn and flat soda as well!
