Gary H Its not the best I have seen and its nothing new, but it was fun Sci-Fi and the CGI was very good, I enjoyed it and would recommend it to others :) Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/25 Full Review Igor S The dialogue is a bit bad, and at times cringy, especially in the forced intimate tension, where it seemed like it was written by a 13 year old who has never had a girlfriend; the delivery on the main character's backstory was forced; it used lighting tricks to give it an aesthetic but it was all done to mask the lack of budget/originality in set design. But i still had fun and a few jokes actually landed. I have a saint's patience tho. I think most people will probably be bored watching this. Particularly because everything is so dark and there is nothing to entertain the eye, scenario wise(except for neon lights in the second half). This could have been better with a little more originality in the script, set design, and a little bit more budget. The movie felt like a wallking/talking simulator. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review Troy R Honestly a decent SciFi movie. The movie basically presents the scenario of what it would be like if we could send people into space regularly. Things like inequality in gear between different pay grades, money saving decisions that lead to unfortunate scenario, etc. It isn't groundbreaking, there is no crazy intricate story, but its just a decent 1hr 1/2 SciFi Action movie. The monsters were interesting and had their own niche to play. I think they may have been a bit overused to push the story along, but no major complaints. There are a couple of jumps here and there and some funny moments. Movie had a believable storyline, reasonable motivation for characters, and a decent ending. The end credit music was a nice touch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/25 Full Review darren j VERY FUN RIDE! **** Don't believe the Debbies Downering this highly energetic and enjoyable Sci-fi escapade!!! First, im a horror and sci-fi fan and i NEVER jump in movies and this movie made me jump once! 😱 Reminds a lot of 65 with Adam Driver. Monsters were grade A beef! And the action was quite constant. Effects were great as was lighting and direction. I don't know who these people are saying that Ramos and Scott are bad acting 🤣 they were very genuine and you can't not get attached to them! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/25 Full Review Andriy S Un-original, slow and then tries to pick up, plot all over the place, dialogue is oh god no but hey at least 4 jokes were funny, tries to put in smart things but they just aren't practical or semi close anything that could or would happen - like you know when the main guy in an action movie stands still and a thousand bullets make out the silhouette to which they follow up with "I knew we could do it together" and then Dom from Fast & Furious bursts in on space car and says "Because we family" and they ride off into the sunset on a horse would make a better.....something Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/25 Full Review Erin M Entertaining sci-fi movie. The acting was fine, I’ve seen the main actor in Transformers and Twisters…..he’s capable and likeable. The supporting actress was really good in Smile 2. I’m not sure who the oddballs are that are hating on this, but give it a shot! It’s way better than the crap from Disney that gets way too many views.
