One thing. I've only seen it once, so take this opinion for what it is.
I love a lot of things about the movie: like some of those special/practical effects and that scene with the ship docking set to classical music. But it kind of takes away from the movie for me that inbetween the beginning and end, it was basically a well done creature feature. Not that I want it to be some avant garde weirdness from beginning to end, but creature features don't exactly scream "intellectual masterpiece".
The ideas explored throughout the movie definitely elevate it beyond creature feature status, but I still don't see it as groundbreaking from beginning to end. I just saw it as a pretty darn good movie with some fantastic sci fi porn.
