Sobre este filme

Europa Report follows a contemporary mission to Jupiter's moon Europa to investigate the possible existence of alien life within our solar system. When unmanned probes suggest that a hidden ocean could exist underneath Europa's icy surface and may contain single-celled life, Europa Ventures, a privately funded space exploration company, sends six of the best astronauts from around the world to confirm the data and explore the revolutionary discoveries that may lie in the Europan ocean. After a near-catastrophic technical failure that leads to loss of communication with Earth, the astronauts must overcome the psychological and physical toll of deep space travel, and survive a discovery on Europa more profound than they had ever imagined. Acclaimed director Sebastián Cordero (Chronicles) illustrates what it would be like to venture to another planet and explores the biggest mystery facing humanity: are we alone? 2012 by Europa Ventures, LLC

Intelligent science fiction that doesn't give more credence to spectacle than to believable physics, and which still manages to pull off a visually stunning, suspenseful and intriguing story. No malicious monsters, alien viruses or stereotypes, no contrived human-interest subplots to pull in a broader audience. This is a ripping yarn that has not been compromised for the sake of a box office take, and regardless of how well this did in the theatres, it is, critically speaking, a worthy outing for those who like to think their way through a movie. And the music is brilliant.

I totally loved this movie. Creative idea, believable scenario, great actors. I came to watch that movie because the late Michael Nyqvist was in it, who is one of my favourites. Also the rest of the cast was really great, Dr House's girlfriend was in it too. It is a shame this movie is not known more, the most original Scifi movie I have seen in a long time.

The start may put some off and it might seem a little strange and disjointed but it settles down after about twenty minutes and then you just sit back and enjoy the journey. I wish there was more.
