Good movie, bad science

Rating: 8/10 (13 October 2013)

Since I watched the trailer I thought would be another bad science fiction movie. Normally Hollywood do not pay attention on science and want do do a blockbuster. After I watched the movie I confirmed my initial opinion. Despite the fact of a civilian with just 6 months of training would be on space doing a space walk, there are many problems with the science: Hubble telescope orbits on much higher orbit than ISS, probably they (Hubble and ISS) are in different speeds and direction, an astronaut that never saw a Chinese capsule would success land it. There are so many problems in the plot that it would be unlikely from the first scene. But... if you not a critic like me and throw away all science knowledge you will find this a very good movie. The special effects are amazing, Avatar level. My daughter ask me if it was filmed on space. The long scenes from different perspectives, some times in first person, like a game are amazing. This is a movie that deserves be seen, it is a little overrated, but It is a good movie.
