contribution to a scientist but not to science (or science fiction)

Rating: 7/10 (19 November 2014)

I am a theoretical physicist myself. I watched the movie with a bunch of colleagues with great expectations, only to find a badly written story full of inconsistencies and disturbing pseudo-science for the sake of "continuation" and "action". I would summarize it as a spaghetti western meets space movie, with emotional cowboys.
In any case, there are some rare good points (scientifically and psychologically), and probably the scientist that helped them received tons of money, which is a very rare thing in science nowadays.
Thus I think the movie should be supported, although it is the most terrible movie I've watched this year.
Also please hire me too Hollywood!
