Interesting science fiction film

Rating: 4/10 (20 May 2013)

Many people were talking about was the "realistic" style that the movie tried to convey. However, now it was more of a criticism, rather than praise, as people began complaining about motion-sickness. I personally never found the movie sickening, or even all that difficult to watch, but then, I was probably in the minority in that regard.On the other hand, putting too much focus on the creature could really take away from that dramatic, realistic tone.The other important thing is, when in my initial viewings of the film, the characters weren't exactly the reason why I had seen. While I can say with certainty that I was far more patient than the average movie-goer, who was waiting for the monster to show up, I never actually cared about Rob or the others. The opening 20 minutes were merely there to set up the plot and situations that would sort of push the characters along, but we never got to learn much about them outside of their social lives
