Critics Consensus

Biosphere's rambling, unfinished feel doesn't always serve its thoughtful themes, but it's often offset by the engaging interplay between the movie's well-matched leads.

The Careful Critic

No matter how much time you have to waste, don't see this movie. It is the worst movie ever. There is something in it to offend everyone and nothing to redeem it. Terrible plot, awful script, low end set design, photography, and lighting. Maybe there could have been acting, but the two actors were given nothing to work with. This movie is worse than garbage. It's not even worth a review, I just want to save somebody else from throwing away their time and leaving the theater with not one good thing to remember. Trash/garbage/ick.

Derivative. It had potential but needed better direction.

Not funny, not clever, and quite boring. Too much dialogue that didn't add to a plot or storyline.

A light-hearted ‘what if?' evolves (wink) into an interesting ‘what would you do if you were humanity's last hope?' Only quibble - characters are a wee bit slow initially to figure out what's happening but, hey, that's likely when all you have is time to sit & think. And boy can buddy dance!

A very unique indie sci-fi that explores some hot button topics. I can see this film being divisive. The letdown for me is the conclusion or lack of resolution.

Sergio Burstein

Los Angeles Times

Mark is a particularly competent actor who succeeds in granting credibility to the distinct characters he interprets, as in Biosphere... despite its apparent simplicity, he confronts one of the most difficult roles of his career. [Full review in Spanish]

The Australian

Though it’s stuffed full of interesting ideas Biosphere doesn’t really come together in a satisfying way, despite the engaging lead performances.

Rated: 2.5/5

Crooked Marquee

Eslyn and Duplass have made a movie that uses its limited setting and minimal number of characters well, surprising the audience with what they do with so little.

Rated: B

There’s a touch of the old Twilight Zone to this unusual entry into the canon of apocalypse survival movies.

Funny, horrific, and filled with jaw-dropping, “WTF!?” moments, this boundary-pushing film is guaranteed to get you talking — a lot.
