Ratings and reviews

Very underrated. I have no idea how people could dislike it! The effects are fabulous, story line is captivating, it's both funny and sad, the entire cast (all 4 of them) are exceptional. Jennifer Lawrence, as always, plays her role with her heart and soul into it. The slightest face changes bring a real depth to the character. Chris is very good too, but everyone is 2nd fiddle when working with Jennifer. The look on his face when he does the unthinkable is spot on, it clearly shows the emotions without a word being spoken. The 'butt shots' aren't bad either ladies! If you have seen it and don't think much of it, watch it again at least once, as you notice more. I promise, it's better the 2nd or 3rd time round. As you can tell, I love it, so you wont be surprised to hear I bought it, and I've watched it dozens of times (sometimes several times a day) but it's even better in 3D. I have to rest up a lot as I am unwell, so I enjoy my films.

The whole concept of this film is good but lacking in many many ways. The film starts off slow but gradually picks up and things start to happen on board. i have to say that they could of done so much more with this film as it has a lot of potential. In a way ime somewhat confused because I really want to give this a full 5/5 but can't because of what it lacks which really is a shame...

I'm a sci-fi fan and thought it was one of the best films I've seen. I've read the bad reviews but for me I can watch a film for enjoyment and don't feel the need to analyse to the nth degree. Very enjoyable, watched it twice and liked the premise.
