Interesting plot

Rating: 7/10 (19 April 2015)

As a screenwriter this must have been a challenging task to accomplish. A lot of research had to go into writing the script. Overall, I thought they accomplished it. It kept me interested and engaged with the plot.
My only suggestion would have been to show more of his daughter's growing up and becoming who she later became. Following her progress in solving humanities needs would have added to the plot and made it a bit more interesting. I think it would have connected the audience to the urgency as to why he left her and her brother behind.
The cinematography and special effects were exemplary and I admire the editors who achieved this. The acting was well.
I loved and hated the characters. I found the female scientist reasons for wanted to go on the journey a bit stupid. She still harbored feelings for another scientist? The plot should have elaborated a little more on her relationship with this guy so I could care like she did. I didn't. Overall the film was entertaining and I did enjoy it.
