thomas-446-105268's rating
Production quality and all is very good..
But the story is basically "have a big space ship, with aloooot of people, just so we can kill more of them".
There is no building of suspense, there is way to many characters to really feel emotionally attached to any of them, or even care. Most characters just seem to be there for the purpose of killing them off in a gory scene.
Another issue, at no point did you have a sense of mystery, everything is over-explained. This is not just a problem with this movie, but with most movies coming out these days. Sci-fi is a mature genre with an intelligent audience, we are not 13 year olds looking for monsters and gore, don't treat us this way.

This movie was great. I honestly do not understand the rating. I grew up with sci-fi, I've read many of the greats.
The slow descend into madness, his monologues, it is just brilliant.
A good story isn't about a lot of action, a lot of events, it lies in the subtleties and how they come together.
Just a brilliant movie. I guess, bladerunner also had a bad reception when it was released. This movie is perhaps not meant for this generation of action spoiled viewers. I really hope this will get some appreciation along the line, so that we may see more of this quality. Real sci-fi fans will love this movie for what it is.

This is one of the best movies in its genre. Furthermore, the special effects are great. I also like how realistic scenes like the decompression scene are, unlike other movies where one can somehow magically survive exposure in space. This is a hardcore science fiction movie!
I honestly do not understand why this is underrated by the critics, this movie is nothing like Hellraiser, its not a rip-off. Actually i found this movie to have been a lot more memorable then the Hellraiser series.
Even in 2015 this movie beats other more recent "so called" sci-fi movies. If you are a guy like me who grew up reading sci-fi and has a healthy brain (unlike these critics), i'm pretty sure you will enjoy this one.
