It was great to see this movie with a geographer and a historian! Those are two areas of knowledge I'm weak in.
As a feminist SF viewer, I noticed that this movie definitely does not pass the Alison Bechdel Rule (http://alisonbechdel.blogspot.com/2005/08/rule.html). And there are a lot of men traveling and fighting together, which means it has great slash potential... that is, if anyone actually cared about the characters.
I expected the father to turn up, but that never happened.
