Pretty original, worth watching

Rating: 7/10 (30 August 2019)

A sci fi and romance movie can be hard to create but it was done pretty well in this movie. The movie is based in the future, specifically on the Avalon, a futuristic passenger spaceship on its way to a new planet for resettlement. After a seemingly small system failure, protagonist, Jim Preston (Chris Pratt), wakes up from hibernation only to find that he's the only one awake. A year later and on the brink of insanity, Jim falls in love with a woman still in hibernation. After waking Aurora up and lying about his part in, essentially, ruining her life, Jim and Aurora fall for each other. As small malfunctions around the ship become larger, Jim and Aurora's problems expand beyond their relationship as they find themselves responsible for the safety of the 5,000 lives onboard. A controversial movie with some good special effects and some great tension, Passengers is worth watching.
