It was a really beautiful film and it somehow kept me glued to the screen for the entire movie. And yet it was completely random and ultimately pointless. Sci-fi turned slasher? Ummm, okay.

Too much cast, none all that interesting--which made me question whether saving the human race and making this film merited the time and effort. I had some hopes for this film since it was another Danny Boyle and Cillian Murphy team up. But those hopes crashed and burned.

I have it in BluRay even. :) I like the visual effects. And I have a thing for Cassie (Rose Byrne), who just happens to be incredibly hot! -- what irony, lol.

Other than that, it's much better than Event Horizon. But nowhere near Serenity. Still, it's worth the see.

Boy, am I glad I didn't waste my $$ on this piece of go se in the theatre. Visually spectacular, but I'm left speechless at the woeful "story" here.

Many have compared this to Event Horizon. I hated Event Horizon. While this didn't suck as much, it was a bigger disappointment.


P.S. Rose Byrne is zesty.

Oddly, i watched it tonight and just happened to wander over here, soo....

It looks like hard science fiction, but ain't.
It wants to be a drama and deeply introspective to the human condition.
The last reel made my head hurt (and not in a good way). Almost dream-sequence scenes with a slasher survivor-cum-boarder reminded me of reavers more than anything, and I have a sense thats not what Boyle had in mind. i could be wrong.

A 'B-': easy on the eyes but enormously implausible, and yet with the right combo of caffeine and hard cider, I dinna care.
