I love sci fi, especially "real ones" that are on space ships.
So I had to see this. There are a lot of known faces and decent actors in this movie, and a few really bad ones. Generic yelling black guy # 1 was very bad but most did a fine job.
The story wasn't bad but the script could have used some work. Okay it could have used a lot of work. Movie fights take a lot of work to be good, this only had one and they didn't put in a lot of work but it didn't ruin it.
What ruined it was certain characters who took decisions based on what mood the writers were in that day. We've all seen horror movies where they split up for no apparent reason, keep walking backwards or if they trip, they keep crawling until the bad guy gets them. This movie didn't have that but it did have some decisions based on the roll of dice it seemed. I really don't like that, especially in a space ship where you HAVE to assume every single person on that ship, with a vital role for the mission to be a success, has a certain amount of education, a certain amount of traning and certainly an IQ of above average. Script writers tend to forget that. In the real world, in a crisis, 80% of people don't actually panic and lose their head but for some reason well trained people on a space ship always seem to stick their own heads up their asses when stuff goes down. This movie could have been REALLY good with not too many changes.
