Sci Fi too much of a given, but good romantic drama and suspense

Rating: 8/10 (26 April 2017)

I am a sci fi fan, but But more on the Fantasy end of the spectrum. But this does require a lot of acceptance on the science advancement end. But as far as sci fi romance end, which is a pretty small group, I put it in the top 4 all time The big question among reviewers on this site, is why the bad reviews by the main critics? The answer is quite simple. You are putting in a formulaic sci fi plot,of early hibernation wake-up, plus equally formulaic "we were thrown together" love story. Then add in the hot actors and slick production and suspense, and you are reaching for a blockbuster. Critics don't like to be reached for. For me, however, its about well rounded characters, human motivation, and production quality, before I even want to go into the science end. This delivers all that, and does it by combining the plot values I mention above in a successful attempt to make something new. Lets face it folks, this isn't rocket science, or even star-ship science. Its entertainment on a high quality level on all fronts. Is it great? No. Is it very good? Heck yes. Very worth the watch. To me, the movies are about entertainment, and if you learn something, that's a bonus. But if you want your intelligence massaged, get out of the reviewing business, and leave the movies where they were meant to be. Which is the hands of the audience who wants solid entertainment.
