The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Not for everyone and not for every occasion. If you're looking for action, save this for later. If you want to see a realistic take on space exploration and its mental implications, it's time to watch this.Realism is the keyword for this film. It doesn't try to convince the viewers with effects or stunts but rather in the way that you could for a brief while really feel you're in space. The director, Eric Hayden's father has been working on the Galileo probe that went to Jupiter which probably had its contribution to this film's script. The whole design of the ship and the mission is very realistic and it'd be quite close to the actual way we would go to Europa if we ever would.Without going into spoilers, there is another level going on in the film. More human. Again the characters are realistic and they act like a well trained astronauts would. But as the events unfold, the mental evolution of the main character becomes analogous with the craft's journey both in space and fate.There's a hint of third level on the movie which probably means I have to watch this movie again. It's not just the craft or the man inside who's making the journey but us, as human beings collectively.

Here's another movie you've seen before - if you're old enough to remember every iteration of the Robinson Crusoe mythology, or went to a high school film class. From Mr. Robinson Crusoe to Cast Away, and Robinson Crusoe on Mars, as well as 2001 and Silent Running, this story has been told many times before.The plot? In a nutshell, isolated astronaut goes nuts. On the plus side, Khary Payton does an acceptable job of on-camera work. On the other hand, his voice-overs could use work. In the end, it's an OK movie for a hangover, since it's intellectually and emotionally undemanding. On the other hand, you could turn the channel to a bass fishing show.

I stumbled across this movie. I never heard of its existence before. But this was am amazing piece of work.Yeah, as with all space movies you'll have a lot of tech questions after seeing it,... but that does not take away the great acting and the wonderful job the director did.How could you, for about 90 percent of the movie, make a movie so solid that you do not get bored seeing just one actor whole that time? Well they did it in this movie.The main focus is on the Astrounaut Michael, who in a privately funded spacecraft goes to investigate life that has been found on one of the moons of Jupiter. But trouble very early on in the mission, leaves him alone and in trouble, and years from his end goal. He has to find ways to stay alive, keep his mind focused and try to make it back to Earth.The movie does not really go into great detail on the tech. But it does not have too. It mainly focuses on his personal journey, to keep his mind focused on the tasks at hand. Survival.I especially liked the last 5-10 minutes of the movie. As a surprise to all, almost home, he decides to make that last push, of exploration, with all the risks it holds.I think the poem he recited at the end, by T.S. Eliot, will in the years to come, become a fine piece of movie heroics and a classical piece of cult space movies. Making this movie a fine piece of art for all the space movie fans.Autronaut Michael is my hero here... showing exactly what we as humans should aim for. Reach for the stars, explore... and go out there.But that is just my humble opinion, here on Earth.I'll rate this movie 9/10... because it deserves it.

After seeing many of the more recent sci-fi, space/time travel films, I grew to expect a certain amount of jaw dropping, mind blowing action and uber cool looking techno gadgetry. This is the opposite of what you get with this film.Instead, this film makes an honest attempt at displaying what one may go through when faced with an incredibly stressful, physically and mentally demanding situation while being years from earth. This is a spectacle in plot, cinematography, character development and writing. If you are looking for a sci-fi drama, this is it. If you want high action and special effects, check out something else.
