I hate to sound arrogant and pretentious, but I'll say it:"If you did not like this movie you didn't think hard enough!" Even if unfamiliar with the philosophical underpinnings, there are a plethora of other reasons do like this movie. Namely, the soundtrack, the metaphors, the emotion, the screen shots, and probably the best ending I've ever seen. Basically, if you see this movie once, you'll be confused, but confusion is too often used as an license to criticize. I wrote a paper about this entitled "Aronofsky's Duality as Nihilistic."
