Painting by the numbers

Rating: 5/10 (16 May 2017)

I was not expecting a lot from this movie and in that respect was not disappointed - nice visuals but the story sucked! This is the Hollywood equivalent of painting by the numbers. Scott should pay more attention to the story line and a little less to the special effects. Hollywood seems to insist on having us believe that the astronauts corps is drawn from the moron class rather than the real life reality where only the very brightest make the grade. The ending was predictable, actually the bulk of the movie was predictable, and just appeared a set up for another "episode" to rip more $s off Joe public. The theme appeared to be "day trip for the kids from the Special School". Disappointing!
