What to Know

Critics Consensus

Passengers proves Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence work well together -- and that even their chemistry isn't enough to overcome a fatally flawed story.

Passengers takes what could have been an interesting debate about consent and glosses it over with cheesy romance and problematic sex. Go to Full Review

The production design here is spectacular and utopian - a delirious idea of a future that's perfectable, a world without blemish. Go to Full Review

5/10
Its science-fiction premise about lovers in space starts with promising questions, but soon approaches a horizon that lacks depth and is lost, from the beginning, in a black hole of clichés. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Passengers has a lot going for it, but the entire treatment feels mishandled, misguided, and a missed opportunity. Go to Full Review

Agnieszka W @Solsolsol 21h To be brutally honest, I was low-key hoping for Jim to die, and for Aurora to face the same loneliness dilemma some time down the line. And cut. The actual ending is so ridiculously bucolic that I'm not sure whether to laugh, or to despair. Forget quickly is probably the right thing to do.

Are you kidding me?! The director and writer completely ruined the story. They should have let them arrive alive! This could have been a masterpiece, but instead it’s frustrating, pointless, and infuriating. I can’t believe they made such a stupid choice!" See more Ian C Dec 3 This is one of those films where you should ignore the ‘critics’ reviews and read what the actual audience thinks - I really enjoyed it, good effects, great acting and thought provoking storyline- I’d definitely recommend it! 🚀❤️ See more Andrew B Nov 27 It's a tragedy that the movie is rated so poorly on Rotten Tomatoes. It's a fantastic movie with great acting and an original story. See more Rory D Nov 26 I thought that this was a good movie with a unique storyline. Having seen the poor scores on rotten tomatoes I was hesitant to watch it, but I'm glad I did. Good acting from the two main characters. It gives similar vibes to the film 'blue lagoon'. Some may think that it's slow-paced, but I thought it fit well. From someone who has seen a lot of movies and is looking for something new to watch, I would recommend. See more Cenk A Nov 25 Great ending. Jeniffer Lawrence was amazing. Beautiful visuals. See more Read all reviews
