Finally a sci-fi movie I can recommend

Rating: 9/10 (29 January 2017)

A thoughtful and compelling film that stays just this side of unbelievable. Great visuals, strong acting and a surprising anti- corporate sense of humor. No icky aliens or extended space warfare scenes, this is pure drama and romance that also wrestles with several moral dilemmas. Special mention goes to Michael Sheen who plays the compassionate if robotic bartender and inadvertently triggers the unraveling of the main character's secret. Most of the movies I've seen on the big screen over the last ten years have been disappointments that made me feel I'd wasted the ticket price. Not this one, I've now seen it twice and might go back again.
