An interesting movie that explores the question of what could happen if humans came into contact with alien life. It is not a 'dumb' question to ask. We discuss the possibility of going to Mars, where there could be microbial life. What if humans are exposed to these microbes. Interestingly, the 'life' that wreaks havoc on the science team started as a microbial life form from Mars. Not suggesting that is likely microbial life from Mars could mutate as a full blown creature; in in real world Martian microbial life would most likely kill by inhalation. Though the movie does try to depict space life more realistically than many other sci-fi films I have seen, Hollywood does pull out some dramatic licenses here; especially with the creature somehow flying about in the open vacuum of space without imploding.
