Enjoyable experiencing barring the ethical stuff

Rating: 7/10 (31 December 2016)

Passengers is very clean and streamlined film. That's the best way I could put it. There's not much excess information or characters; it focuses on a moral dilemma which surprisingly carries the film all the way through. You may agree or disagree with how the moral issue is resolved, but the process through all that is fairly interesting, and set in a fantastical and beautiful futuristic backdrop. The film is not complicated, yet it keeps you thinking for a bit.
The tone and pacing feels more similar to The Martian rather than Interstellar, if it helps you compare.
I would say a solid 7.5. Not quite an 8 due to the simplicity of its plot elements, but a solid watch.
