It just came on Demand and was wondering if it was worth getting?

I liked it, but not a lot of others I know really understood it. I had to explain a bit.
Not a bad movie overall, but don't expect a lot of "action".

I really enjoyed it. Going to go find the DVD or BluRay for it and buy it probably.

Well I decided to get it and I liked it. The only thing I didnt like was how dark some of the movie was... but I think that was due to my POS TV...1 more month for my tax refund

Ended up getting the BluRay... I'm no audiophile or video snob but I thought it was excellent. The extras were pretty nice too. It was cool to see the original short and listen to the commentary and interviews about the movie after I watched it.

I thought it was a good movie. Nothing spectacular in my opinion. Not sure if I would buy it. Maybe on blu-ray when it is $15 or less.

This really was a waste of time...the movie has a weak plot, the story is fragmented and ends very abruptly with many loopholes....though the animation is top notch.
Once the movie started, I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt by telling myself that it might get interesting in the later stage, but it was never unique. This same plot has been played over and over again, but what made it worse was that the major plot hole was the whole story on how to kill the baddies...The writer could have done so much more with the entire concept, but seemed that he or she did not have their heart in it and wanted to close the movie as soon as it started.
Overall, too much hype but not able to deliver.

like others have said, visually it was nice, the level of detail that went into the world that was created was impressive, but the story was lacking. Plus for some reason the whole numbers thing kept throwing me off, i kept forgetting which number was who, which two numbers where gone, which where in the story, how many where left, how many total  seemed like a math problem at times.

I'm a bit curious..
where has this story been done over and over again?
And killing the baddies wasn't the point. It was about his plan to regrow / repopulate a dead world being played.
