An Endearing and Prescient Sci fi Movie

Rating: 8/10 (13 January 2019)

3 March 2016. While mildly dated, this serious and substantive sci fi thriller offers up many of the themes and suggestive special effects that would become normal fare in future sci fi movies. The fusion of meaningful moral and intellectual themes along with the individual and global perspective makes this sci fi thriller a heavy-weight sci fi movie. It takes and projects itself as serious science fiction, rising above being just an entertaining and action movie. What is unique of this movie is its mainstream look while at the same time tapping into a hard core sci fi narrative. This movie will likely to be an enduring and recognized sci fi classic for years to come, suggestive of later blockbuster Interstellar (2014).
