Surprisingly beautiful & not what I expected.

Rating: 8/10 (23 February 2017)

I went into this expecting a schmaltzy, fluffy Titanic in space. I'm not the biggest fan of Pratt, but I actually shed a tear when he was floating in space, looking out on the firmament and weeping. His loneliness was palpable, and the relationship between Pratt & Lawrence is believable. Don't see this if you're expecting groundbreaking sci-fi. It's exquisitely filmed, beautifully set, and believably acted though it is, at its heart, a love story. See it for the visual beauty that it is and enjoy.
