Totally unrealistic and predictable

Rating: 4/10 (23 March 2017)

The Good: The movie looks great. Most of the movie is in a 0-gravity environment and that's been filmed exceptionally well. The actor performances are also solid.
The Bad: The plot is shallow, and the characters kind of one dimensional. There are some attempts to get more under the skin of the characters, but these fail as these are too short and invariably followed by some sort of action sequence.
The Ugly: I can dig a movie where everything goes wrong despite the best efforts of the characters (Murphy's law), but here's a bunch of professional astronauts, extremely well trained and well aware of the risks they are facing. Yet their actions are pretty much "let's see what stupid thing we can do next to get ourselves in to trouble even further?" Because that theme dominated the narrative, it was easy to see what was going to happen next and where the movie would end. The visuals were really realistic, as was the premise, but the story ended up being totally unrealistic.
