Science fiction and psychology at the best. Those two venues do not require special effects to make an excellent movie. This will become a classic in time. Listen to what the characters say and pay attention. No big explosions or great adventure. A movie at its greatest.
Don’t see this if you cannot think. If you want pure entertainment and lots of adventure, thriller, redo, explosions, fun-ride movies. This is not for you. This movie is an exploration of a father and son relationship and family. The setting is space. The movie is excellent and well worth seeing if you know what you are going to see. Definitely worth the price of a ticket.
The movie just doesn't work, never drawing you into whatever's taking place on screen. Just one scene after another that fail to engage the audience and make you care...some of the planetary special effects were nice to look at, and Brad Pitt, Tommy Lee Jones and Donald Southerland gave it some substance, but overall a failed movie that I wanted to end way more than I wanted it to continue.
I always make a point of seeing anything PLAN B does. Thank you Pitt for another brilliant film
Quality
Boring movie from start to finish. Nothing really happens.
Subtract Pitt.
Of course some of the science isn't right; it's science fiction! But the script is well done and the message of the movie is as true as can be. Well done from beginning to end.
SUCKED Total disappointment
story line drivel and self commentary daft
