Riveting Thrilling Intelligent Science Fiction Horror

Rating: 9/10 (19 July 2017)

The beauty and awe inspiring wonder of space is captured in the opening scenes of this movie. Samples from mars are to be analyzed by crew members of the International Space Station.
From the very beginning moments of the film you are immediately drawn into the environment. The characters are quickly and efficiently painted such that you will develop a connection with and understanding of who they are. This is critical for any good story telling since the audience or reader must empathize with the characters in order to truly feel a presence and thus have interest in the proceedings.
This film is virtually flawless. If you enjoy a well written, intelligent and clear science fiction story that at the same time is thrilling and has a powerful emotional tone you must watch LIFE(2017).
The nominal 7/10 rating with the average 6.7 here on IMDb is not even close to reality. This film is easily a straight up no questions asked 9/10. I loved it !
