It's a hard watch (split it over three evenings for me) but the fact that I'm googling this film so much after watching it means something. There's an awful lot to take in and I'm glad I made it to the end. Madness and genius. Such a well made film, I can't imagine how hard it must have been to film something like this.

I thought this was really well done SciFi. A small cast of characters who were put in an impossible situation. I assumed (based on the title) that the 'threat' would be pretty predictable but I was happy that the movie went down a different route. Its not a psycho-in-space film, its much more interesting than that given what happens and the dilemmas the astronauts face. Its tragic without being depressing and I actually thought the ending was beautiful. I can understand why people would find it infuriating, but imagine being that character and how they were feeling. And that's what makes it, for me at least.
