score 10/10
I will never understand how so many critics and, by extension, the "word of mouth" that ferments following their reviews, can be so wrong. This movie is a perfect example.
The first time that I heard about the concept, I was intrigued and really started looking forward to it. Also, I like both Chris Pratt and, despite her recent annoying public forays into the PC world of Hollywood, Jennifer Lawrence. Both actors seem genuine, don't fall into the overacting habit in an attempt for critical accolades and make enjoyable movies. No performance in this movie was a let down, even the very limited time for Lawrence Fishburne who, again, is someone who doesn't disappoint. The story is well developed and the cinematography blows you away, particularly on a 3D screen. Granted, not the same concept as another great movie, Intersteller, but similar in "feel." Just like that movie, there's a lot of "what ifs" that make you think. One of the biggest is Chris Pratt's dealing with the question of waking up another passenger because of his own loneliness. I think anyone would have done the same and it wasn't haphazardly tossed aside as a given.
Overall, I can't say enough good things about this movie and I really hope it doesn't get cast aside with so many other highly anticipated/marketed movies that fail to perform as much at the box office. Excellent movie overall and well worth your time. Give it a chance and you'll be blown away.
