(This review may contain spoilers).
I was quite intrigued by the plot of this film when I originally saw it advertised. I tend to like quite a different variety of genres of films, like I do with books/television series.
It was interesting to see that this film began after the problems started with the world, rather than showing how society got to that point. It was probably unnecessary to go into a huge amount of detail, considering the state the world is in right now.
This film didn’t have a really unique plot, but I felt that it was still entertaining even so. There were a lot of nice moments of tension in this and I liked the relationship between the main character and his daughter… though it was a bit disappointing that there was less time spent developing his relationship with his son.
This film did require quite a lot of suspension of disbelief, but it was interesting how things fit together as the film went on. It was also good to see the time difference used on the different planet – even though the idea of one hour being seven years back home was quite a scary one.
There were quite a few technical terms in this that I didn’t always understand, but for the most part, I was able to follow the movie.
I recognised quite a few of the actors in this film and although I saw a few things coming in this, the film was still entertaining to watch with a good storyline and nice interactions between the characters. There were some quite intense moments and I was drawn into the film quickly. It dd hold my attention throughout and although I probably won’t watch it again, it was definitely interesting enough to watch once.
