Yeah. My thoughts as well, just with the addition of, "I can understand why this won awards." Normies are so used to generic slop that a somewhat clumsily executed sci-fi story must be mind blowing for them. The whole thing felt like a Heroes mashed together with invader Zim. Just aping things from the early 2000s is enough to stand out these days. It wasn't excellent, but it sure must have seemed unique if you're used to Hollywood's usual faire.
