Potential not quite met

Rating: 6/10 (4 July 2017)

When I saw the reviews of this film it was very mixed. User reviews seem to praise it a lot and critics the opposite. In truth the film is somewhere in between.
The film starts with a colonisation ship being hit by a meteor shower causing disruption to some of the ship's functions some 90 years earlier than expected, including that of a certain life support pod containing Chris Pratt. We then how he comes to terms with being the sole person on the whole of the ship, including some of the moral choices about whether to deliberately wake up another passenger (Aurora - JL), even though this will mean their eventual death, for companionship. So far, so good.
This is where the film starts to go off the rails a bit. Without successfully accessing any useful part of the ships controls JL (Aurora) and CP (Jim) develop a romantic connection... that is until Aurora discovers how she was awakened too early. It takes the awakening of Laurence Fishburne, as a member of the crew, to provide access to the ship's sensors to discover that the ship is ultimately doomed unless they can work together and bring the plot back into focus... MUST... FIX... SHIP... AND... GO... BACK... TO... DEEP... SLEEP.
It's the second half of the film that leaves me wondering whether I enjoyed the film or not. It appears that wrongly waking a woman from hibernation for selfish reasons and then lying about it can be forgiven by placing yourself in a life-threatening situation. Quid pro quo anyone?
I think I enjoyed it and it probably is worth watching once but I'm not sure I could watch it again.
