I saw this at a preview screening in northern California.
Excellent movie, just don't expect a lot of action. If you liked the classic Silent Running with Bruce Dern, you will enjoy this movie. Not the same story, just the same sort of mood and plot of surviving under impossible conditions.
Matt Damon does a great job, injecting unexpected humour in appropriate places but not overdoing it. His is the only acting performance of any note, in my opinion. The movie is pretty much all Matt Damon
My only complaint with this movie is the 3-D. I don't believe it added anything to the film and I actually found it disturbing now and then. A couple of scenes appeared to have flat images in the background, resembling some of the still photos in the old Viewfinder toy.
I assume some of us will nitpick the science, but overall most of what happens seems feasible and within the laws of physics. At least to me.
