Mind burning.. Literally..

Rating: 3/10 (12 October 2011)

I consider 2.2 hours of my time wasted on this film.. watch it for yourself and hope you can extract something more out of it than I did.. I am a sci-fi fan, and I do not pretend to find solid logical arguments in such movies.. For me it is more of a flight of imagination in which we explore different worlds and possibilities and have fun in the process.. Now, this film is very messed up in my humble opinion.. It starts with a rather overly developed scientific base (for a sci-fi movie), and, after more than an hour of this.. In comes absolute, total, complete, lack of common sense.. We choose a space travel representative on basis of religious belief?? Oh my God !! shouldn't this be on Mel's the passion of Christ? O yes.. they mention 95% of the people on the planet believe in god or something similar.. More than half believe in spirits and or ghosts.. Shouldn't we send the Ghostbusters?? Science and religion just don't mix!! But its much more than that.. Its plain dumb.. The trip is calculated to last approx. 4 years.. and all mankind's representative takes is a camera?? Uhm.. NO Water? Food? Something to read? A toilet, maybe? Oh, YES !! she takes a suicide pill with her, just in case.. She gets there and some alien in the form of her father tells her "you have to stick together"!! After 2 hours of hoping for some fun ?? At mid movie the overly crafted science script is handed over to a school of writing monkeys. Sorry guys, this should be classified as new age no logic required religious wishful thinking movie, not sci-fi. Certainly not science. And, I would like to specially thank robdur5233 who has, in my opinion expressed the best review of this movie..
