Terrifying... mediocrity

Rating: 6/10 (5 July 2017)

It starts quite promising, with a pretty acceptable cast and decent lines.
However, you get to the point where you don't have to think or wonder, the characters tell you everything you need to know like they're telling a typical alien story with nothing surprising.
The script is vague and forced, with the details told in a too excessive poetic way.
Some characters don't fit in the whole idea. You get to hate Hugh even more than you hate Calvin itself. You hate how Hugh is illogically obsessed with a couple of cells like he had no common sense at all.
The "emotional" parts of the movie are pathetic. SPOILER: The death of Rory was sudden, stupid, and mourned by nobody in his crew. I'm pretty sure Jake even smiled a bit in this part.
After the first half of the movie, you've lost all expectation and you dedicate yourself to enjoy guess the predictable coming events of the rest of the film.
The monster/alien/bunch of cells growing up for no reason, is pretty dull. SPOILER: it grows up in an environment similar to Earth - according to the movie, is rich on Carbon Dioxide more than oxygen-, which has no sense after it escapes the firewall and begins to play around the entire spaceship which is fully charged of oxygen and almost no Carbon Dioxide.
Its a shame, though. The whole idea sounds better than it looks on the screen.
