POSITIVES…
Familiar premise, but an interesting one nonetheless.
The George Clooney and Caoilinn Springall relationship is my most favorite thing about this movie.
The introduction of Felicity Jones in space was a nice scene that sparks that wonder you want to see in science fiction movies. There's more of that experience throughout the film.
That whole space walk sequence was definitely one of the highlights of this movie.
Future tech ideas showcased was great.
Excellent supporting cast. David Oyelowo, Kyle Chandler, Demian Bichir, Tiffany Boone, and the rest.
Musical score by Alexandre Desplat as pretty darn good.
NEGATIVES…
Derivative.
Meanders. Listless. Boring.
Overall narrative should have been reworked for this story.
At 122 minutes, it felt unnecessarily long for this movie. There are three (or four) main storylines being told here. Probably would have worked better as a 4 part limited series.
There were some plot conveniences in this that felt frustratingly cliche. C’mon screenwriters! Let’s not keep going back to the same old tired well of plot tropes.
