Was excited to see someone do another Heinlein novel. Since his books are about the people in the story using the science fiction as a way to get into them, the filmmaker did that here. The characters were believable and have a dramatic appeal. The novel delves deeper into the love triangle of the 3 initial business owners yet you get a bit of it here. The story is all there and I enjoyed th movie.

Very Good Rendition Of Heinlein
Wonderful Adaptation!
This book is one of my favourite Heinlein stories.
While not a 100% rendition of the original novel, this movie embraces the heart and soul of RAH's book.
It's an amazing emotional experience to see RAH's characters brought to life and even if with the story modifications, I loved what they did with this.
Top shelf and a massive THANK YOU to the honourable people who made this movie!
As perfect as it gets
I am the founder of the 2007 Heinlein Centennial convention, so not a casual fan. And I'm aware of how much reverence fans have for the novel. This adaptation is simply ideal. The love and respect for the original glow from the screen; you'll even recognize everything about Pete the cat. Every change is thoughtful, necessary, and makes the heart of the original shine even further. The creators of this work are clearly Heinlein fans of the first order and they have made a work he would be proud of.
