Lazy and underwhelming

Rating: 6/10 (5 February 2017)

I would say this is a bad movie. Its beautifully made and the cast is strong. But the plot is entirely predictable after the first 15 minutes. The script is set up in a way that entirely telegraphs what is going to happen once the initial plot device is set up. That may be OK if you don't value plot twists and surprises, but if you do you will not get any here. But that still leaves the question that if the entire audience can see it coming that Michael Sheen's android is the one who will tell Aurora how she was awoken why can't Jim? After all, as is demonstrated later, all he would have to do is remove one circuit board from the the android to shut it up forever. Duh!
Also the movie is full of holes and implausibilities that obstruct any form of suspension of disbelief. For example, it is utterly implausible that the ship would not have emergency protocols to awaken crew in the event of trouble. How on earth does the ship's sophisticated computer systems not know that passengers have awoken too early? And why do the passengers not awaken say a medic once they do have access to all areas.
Its unfortunately its the typical lazy screen writing we have come to expect from Hollywood. But having said that, some of the zero gravity scenes are stunning.
