Didn't expect a lot from this movie and it delivered. The astronaut is well trained in napping. It's his go to move when trouble abounds. The title should be "guy travels 20 light years to nap on alien planet". I think there was a message about mankind destroying themselves. But what I got from it was how not to edit a movie. There are numerous black screen cuts (usually after one of the aforementioned naps) that destroy any continuity that the film may have had.
Also, for no reason at all, there's several baby sequences. Has nothing to do with the plot. Just a, hey we saw 2001 space odyssey! Now watch this guy take another nap.
He does make friends with a robot dog that has a luggage rack that takes him a while to figure out. The aliens also can figure out how to make autonomous robots but are still working with reel film. Not even VHS. But, on a positive note, their film can survive the gamma ray burst of a nuclear attack. So that's pretty sweet.
I went with 3 stars because it was a good laugh and left me confused. It was the only movie I've watched where I hoped the lead would commit suicide so it would end.
