Remake of Quatermass?

Rating: 4/10 (23 March 2017)

*******Contains spoilers****
I found this movie extremely frustrating and predictable. I am amazed that Ryan Reynolds agreed to be in the movie. However, Reynolds part in the movie was relatively small as he was the first to be killed off, I can only assume he requested this.
The movie is about discovering a life form on another planet (in this case Mars) and bringing it back to Earth orbit in a space station .. it is similar to the Quatermass story in this regard
The frustrating part of the movie is, astronauts cannot are really this stupid, if they are, then mankind has no future in space.... let me explain.
Firstly, the film repeatedly talks about the "firewalls" and the importance of quarantine. But shortly after the life form has been discovered and starts growing at an extremely alarming rate (alarm bells!!), the life form expert (Ariyon Bakare) makes a silly mistake, does not follow protocol and puts the whole crew at risk. Ryan Reynolds than charges into the quarantine area to fix the issue.
Secondly, they have discovered a life form, which is the first ever positive confirmation that life exists outside of Earth. So what do they do? They electrocute the life form and then wonder why it starts attacking the crew (or defending itself?)
Thirdly, after they electrocute the life form and it starts showing a aggressive reaction (surprise!) the life form expert (Ariyon Bakare) is attacked and falls unconscious. Reynolds character (again) charges into the quarantine area and pushes the unconscious Ariyon Bakare out. This results in Reynolds being told by Rebecca Ferguson character, "you can't come out!!" Why was allowed to enter the quarantine area in the first place?? – this takes me neatly back to my first sentence of this review......Exit Reynolds :)
Fourthly, this worst part of the movie is when the third "firewall" kicks in, which is a ship sent from Earth to push the space station into deep space to stop the life from reaching Earth. The scenes during this part of the movie are ridiculously confusing. Basically Hiroyuki Sanada character tries to get into the ship to escape, and this results in the ship breaking up and pushes to space station back into Earth Orbit. .. Great job of protecting humanity guys!!
The rest of the movie continues on this downward spiral of silly mistakes an amateur astronaut would avoid doing and in the end the life form gets back to Earth (Surprise!! (again)) after a totally ridiculous scene where the last 2 survivors jump into escape pods (and again) completely mess up, sending the alien back to Earth while the escape pods that was supposed to go Earth is pushed out into deep space with Rebecca Ferguson's character in it!
I came out of the movie theatre feeling cheated this is 104 minutes of my life I will never get back
Avoid this movie at all costs
