You look for serious sci-fi ? Move along. I was out of this movie about 45 min in.
Should have been out earlier about around when they caught a capsule moving thousands of mph with a grappling arm without breaking anything. Yep, that is the level of science here. More ?
- Rampaging with some kind of a flamethrower in a laboratory without damaging anything.
- how much coolant can there be in a spacesuit ?
- can an organism lay dormant for what might possibly be millions of years and then develop into a complex lifeform ? Of that I´m not certain.
Then there is the typical illogical behavior of the characters that is nessessary to propel the plot. And the CGI for that alien is bad, you always recognize it as beeing CGI. Which is weird because the rest looks pretty good. And the end ? As if nobody saw that coming. They need to prepare a sequelloading replies
@finfan Don't forget the completely lacking characterisation - apart from the dude with the wasted legs - there was virtually none at all in the movie. There appeared to be a lot of characters - none of whose names I could remember let alone care about when they died. And the ending - way too obvious. (I just won't mention the whole movie being riddled with plot devices that breaks the idea of 'real' science and technology being in use. If the makers wanted to do stuff like that then make a film like that - pure fantasy - trying to make it look like real-life and then breaking all the rules doesn't work.
