Trailer: Netflix's Sci-Fi "Stowaway" Feature - Dark Horizons

Seems like they're going for a quasi- "realistic" approach (along the lines of The Martian). Except... their "artificial gravity" doesn't make sense.

Trailer was interesting, will probably give it a watch.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Looks pretty good but like, I have a hard time believing that a guy could accidentally get stuck on a spaceship without anyone realizing. Maybe, but it just seems pretty far fetched for the realistic sci-fi vibe that they’re going for.

Wow, this looks like the scriptwriters were *trying* to make a story more contrived and nonsensical than The Cold Equations. And they might have just succeeded! So much wrong just in the trailer alone. . .

Just watched this, was okay to a point but the science was quite dodgy and I fell asleep a little at the end which isn't a good sign. But good acting and effects throughout.

6/10

I actually loved this movie. Like a lot. A wonderful naturalistic intensity to the scenarios and moral dilemmas. Great performances from the 4-person cast. Director Joe Penna absolutely nailed the vibe: whole movie has a quiet stillness but also a subtle tension running through it. Some people hated the ending but it really worked for me. I will admit that I cried. Pretty impressive that this film could also find moments of poignancy even within its more restrained approach.

This is probably my new favorite space mission flick outside of 2001, and that's saying something as I have a huge soft spot for movies like Interstellar and Apollo 13. But I loved how focused this film was.

I enjoyed it for what it was, but a couple of the plot choices felt very forced and I'll admit to doing an eye roll when ......

Spoiler

........ they were outside the ship and suddenly there's a SOLAR STORM COMING!!!!! Seems to happen incredibly often in these films with spacewalks.

Also felt it ended quite abruptly.

Still, decent watch if you want something lowkey and I'd go for 6/10.
