I think your opinion on this movie is too rash.  Although the movie
is not an outstanding cinematic effort, it is not as outlandinshly
bad as you make it out to be.  

The film is basically a Robinson Carruso - ish (sp?.)
remake with two space traveler stranded on an alien planet.  
Although the plot is pretty predictable, I dont think it deserves 
to be as badly panned as you've done.
