I heard about this when Woody was on Bill Maher Club Random. I had such high hopes as I love Woody's work.
I don't think the problems with this film had anything to do with Woody. He played his typically broken and laissez faire character replete with alcoholism and all.
First thing I noticed was at the captain's dinner, they presented a plate to a passenger and described it as sea urchin. It had no sea urchin but it did have a lot of mussels.
Next Woody is reciting famous quotes with the Russian shpit seller. He quotes. Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. - George Carlin". But they did really bad ADR and overdubbed the correct attribution of Mark Twain.
I really stopped watching closely after that but it all went pretty much formulaic anyway.

I suppose I could/should have seen it coming but I didn't. I was getting more and more disappointed by bad science and poor contrivance that I wasn't looking for any other way to describe it.
I'm not going to spoil but I loved the premise and was getting anxious wanting it to be better. All I can say is, you gotta watch it all.

I saw the title come across my search and since there are so few titles worth my time I decided to give it a watch.
Started off as the same old formulaic coming of age BS that covers the shelf in this genre. Then it started to slowly come together. I'm not saying this is the best of the genre or ground-breaking cinema. I'm saying this film has gems of merit that make it worth a watch. By the end I was all in.
The characters are lifelike, as in real. The actors are weak and actually help the characters come to life. I know that sounds weird but have a watch and I hope you'll agree. There's everything to hate in this film if hating is what you do.
Our lead, Sunny Suljic, is working his ass off right now, as he should. Kid is cute, brings the stuff to the screen and let's you know where the heart is. If he can make it through the teen years, he's going to be an acting force to be reckoned with.
