Impressive for a Contemporary Film

Rating: 9/10 (7 November 2014)

Having watched the film I must admit that I am impressed that this film contains no vulgarity or immodesty. That alone is impressive. The folks that rated the film did warn about a brief instance of language, and I was amazed at how contained that language is; that one brief moment is the only thing I can object to. Nonetheless I do strongly encourage the producer(s), when this film is released on DVD, as I hope it will be, will edit out that one offensive word and replace it with something else that equally conveys the intensity of emotion which evinced that particular expletive. There are many ways to convey intense feelings without having to offend the holy Name of God. Still, I am pleased that it only happens once.
That said, I found the film interesting. I was very pleased with the film's adherence to the reality that sound does not carry in space. And I was also pleased with the juxtaposition of new and old technology, although I had to allow for certain liberties in that regard. I won't say much else, except that I wished the ending was a little longer and included one additional scene (from a human interest point of view). I don't share the vision of the Earth's future as depicted in the film, but for a sci-fi film, I enjoyed the movie.
