![]() Intelligence over aesthetics, so it's a solid 8 stars from me. To be honest its hard to review this movie without spoilers. I would have loved to have seen more of that. There were some nice effects with luminous pieces of uniforms and light displays on weapons, especially during power outages. The image on the dvd cover is separate artwork from the movie, though consistent with the style of the cgi. There's some odd bits of editing too, too many shots of people's boots (very minor criticism). More than that is the sets, which needed to be way more spacious and a tad grungy, as in Alien movies (it is a mining ship). We want dazzling wow moments, not just how-about-that moments. In my humble opinion that required a bit more effort. I would have given it more stars if the direction had heightened the tension of the big reveals. At first you may feel the acting is a bit stiff, even for corporate/military astronauts, but bear with it. You'll enjoy the movie much more if you go in blind. I just read the synopsis/blurb for this movie and, if you haven't read it, don't. The computer graphics effects were also really good and a plausible technological look forward. If you watch the movie, and you definitely should if you love intelligent sci-fi, then you'll see what I mean. I think the makers realised that too and thus put thought into screen backgrounds, a nice touch. I rather think they could have included them more often to build atmosphere, and as a breather from the understandably (only) slightly claustrophobic effect of the limited set.
