First off, Sci-Fi is my favourite genre - this movie however is only sci-fi in respect to Space being the only locale possible for its premise.
I found the movie's quirky, extreme low budget effects a perfect match tonally for its overall feel - and it even gave me a few giggles. If however, you require ALL your sci-fi films to be hyper-realistic and filled to the brim with the latest generation CGI - you best skip this one.
Comedy-wise, you're not likely to have too many great belly laughs either, but the script and the Leads fantastic chemistry will ensure you have a smile on your face for the majority of it.
As I said, this movie is simple - Very - but if you want to curl up on your lounge for 90 minutes with your partner {or prospective partner} , be well entertained, and finish with a warm fuzzy feeling - you won't be disappointed.
