You know what I figured out..it is a Speilberg homage to all those Sat. matinee movies we went to as kids in the 50's.
there were basically only 2 kinds of kids movies back them at the theaters in the afternoon: westerns and outerspace stuff.

the people who did "get" that, who took the movie seriously, panned it, big time.
My inner 10 year old self enjoyed it.
