Great Sci-Fi flick!

Rating: 9/10 (13 July 2017)

Lots of bad reviews for this film so I went in not expecting much. Now I have to say, it wasn't anything great for the first 95% of the film except some great tension between the cast and the 'Life', and the directing and cinematography/VFX and editing were on point, but if was very slow paced. I really didn't 'feel' many of the characters with the exception of Jake Gyllenhaal, and even he didn't shine until towards the end. Additionally, there were many plot holes that I felt could have been fixed in the editing dept. However, where this little gem did shine, was in that last 5% towards the end. The ending alone made my score jump by 2 points. I don't want to give anything away, but it's certainly visually appealing with an amazing end and should be seen. It's a 9/10 from me.
