Pros: Many moderately endearing characters, decent acting, lots of action. New and interesting gravity effects, though not particularly realistic.
Humor was hit or miss, and most situations were simply ludicrous, as was the entire plot.
The Chinese funding also had a big impact, with the nanny somehow becoming a major character while having no background or personality, and American racism against Chinese people is referenced repeatedly. Then the Chinese step in because the silly US put all of their shuttles in museums, of course (US is the past, China is the future, etc etc). The only billboard in the movie prominently featuring extremely dodgy Russian software was also ... interesting.
Overall it's not painful to watch, and enjoyable enough if you don't have to pay for it and can stomach the recurring propaganda.
