Terrific fun - solid entertainment - see it on the big screen!

Rating: 10/10 (29 March 2017)

This movie delivered much more than I expected. It was satisfying all round entertainment, and one very tame, simulated (suggested) sex scene notwithstanding, a great movie for the whole family (well, > 10 years?). The acting was solid, and in the case of Ms Lawrence, more than competent. The story was interesting, and delivered a couple of surprises along the way. The pseudo technology was better than good, and the special effects were quite entertaining and "realistic". All in all, I gave this movie a ten, not because it can compete with 2001, or Alien, or other blockbuster game-changing movies in this genre, but because it delivered 120 minutes of really great entertainment. I definitely got my money's worth. I will even watch it again when it comes out on DVD. And (this is not a spoiler) stick around for some stellar eye candy when the credits roll along at the end of the movie. I'm usually the first out the door but I hung tough and didn't regret it.
