Sat with my kid last weekend and watched the blu ray, I like him to understand sci fi references wherever they may be, and this movie has spawned a lot of references that still happen all over the place.
Anyway, he was quick to grasp the progression of intelligence/tech that the aliens were bestowing upon humans over eons, how more calories ingested = tribal dominance, and understood why the computer went crazy.
But at the end of the 2 hour movie, his official response was, "That was about an hour and a half of really good movie."
I think he's correct.
