I think Ridley Scott gonna sue somebody!

Rating: 5/10 (19 December 2017)

It's an interesting premise, but we have been here before. Honestly, the only reason I watched it was because of Ryan Reynolds. I started getting ticked off when they were just dismissing mistakes in the physical properties of space. From catching the probe, which would have destroyed the station, to trying to burn the alien (which should have worked if it was indeed Carbon based life), it just became more and more contrived. You can get away with that in a scenario set in the future to a degree, but since this takes place in a factual location, you have to honor the parameters involved. When you don't it becomes a distraction.
Having said all of that, someone needs to make the sequel for the all out battle to ensue following the ending of the film. Life was entertaining enough for Popcorn on the Sofa on a day off.
