Mike S. @Mikeage 16h Beware, SPOILERS… To all the negative reviewers talking about male entitlement and selfishness: man or woman, walk a mile (or a year) in his shoes of solitary confinement and isolation. Only then will you be “entitled” to pass judgement about whether what you did was moral or not. Oh yeah, and everyone (including her) would have died if he hadn’t woken her up. Sometimes things happen for a long-term reason in life, even if you don’t agree with the short-term reason. Understood there is a huge plot hole of not waking up the crew immediately after the officer appears, but the story needed this element to explore themes of remorse, redemption, and forgiveness. Call me an idealist and naive, but I enjoyed this film. See more Annabelle F @RT72889584 18h I cannot believe what I just watched. This is disgusting and there are no excuses. The pathetic love story written by a man was icing on the grape cake See more David H. @rivrocks 1d The priggish cant of the critics is maddening. In an extreme situation, a selfish decision was made. That it offends you doesn't mean it's a flawed story. Nor does her eventual forgiveness, which only further demonstrates what a remarkable woman this character is. Amazing performances all around. There's a lot to like here. See more Salem K @SH_94 1d Stockholm syndrome in space. The premise could have been interesting but it was just about a creepy man who gaslit and lied to a woman who for some reason forgave him. The one star is because it at least had Michael Sheen in it, the one positive. See more oren C @RT21828991 1d I went into this movie with zero expectations. I was kept interested by the story and the special effects. The movie improved and improved. Great characters and special effects. The characters are pulled by self interest vs the survival of others. This continues until they crash against a wall of self realization. I kept watching and it kept getting better. No spoiler here. It is worth the watch. See more Mark C W @retiredenglishprof 2d What kind of Eden is this? Spoiler Alert: A lonely man, in his desperation, unplugs a beautiful woman from hyper-sleep, condemning her to join him in his 90-year journey through space. She is furious, but then falls in love with him, and together, they create a beautiful Garden of Eden on the spaceship for the rest of the passengers to enjoy when they awake. If Adam and Eve could not sustain Eden, how are we supposed to believe that these two love birds, floating through space on an all-you-can-eat; all-you-can drink; luxury spaceship, could pull it off? This is like asking us to believe that the Puritans really did manage to build a beautiful City on a Hill back in 1642; that Cortez’s invasion of Mexico led to a lovely unification of all the Indian tribes and a Garden of Eden in Central Mexico; that the Afrikaner Voortrekkers brought peace and love to the war-faring Zulus and Xhosas in South Africa; and that Jim Jone’s Kool-Aid in Guyana was not spiked. I don’t buy it. One Star See more Read all reviews
