In my opinion (I haven't read the book) the film is badly let down by the 
final scene when the woman scientist meets kids. 
It's badly acted, badly directed, gratuitous ....it's just awful. So if you could stop your player 
before that scene takes off and just have "the heroine" gazing at the sky all 
by herself.... the film is not that bad.
