I can't remember much of the first two films in this series. I actually can't remember why I even watched the first. But, it was nice to see the series finish up on the big screen, having I watched the first two on video.
The one thing this film has going for it is a constant sense of moment and urgency. And this is a great thing because the running time of the film is so long. The opening train sequence was Fast and Furious-like and worked very well. There are other action sequences spread throughout the film, they are fairly generic, but well-done. The special effects in the film were also impressive.
There are no Oscar-worthy performances in the film, but the actors all do give it all they have and it shows.
Overall, I am glad this this series got a big screen finale -- unlike the YA series that I begrudgingly watched and didn't get a finale, Divergent. This film is well put together, exciting and was worth watching on the big screen.

The suspension was killing me! Good director!
This is basically the same as the Mitchell’s vs the machines, which was far superior

@abstractlegend what the movies are nothing alike
I wish they would follow the book, rather than buy the rights to the book, then throw it all away and just make up new stuff which is apparently what they have done.

Naw, it wouldn’t make a good movie, jumping all over.
Wow, this movie had so much potential but in the end it fell well short. The huge plot hole for me was: how did the creature get back inside by going through a thruster bell/engine? The ISS uses a hydrazine compound as a propellant and it is extremely toxic. This would dictate that there is no way that the thruster bell/engine would be connected in any way to ISS internal atmosphere. If it was, the atmosphere would leak into space! There were other things wrong as well but this was the biggee for me.

@heartman well, it's a magical space station where you can inadvertedly open the door from a presurized habitable module to another one where they vacuumed all the air out. Of course you can get inside through a thruster! :)
The description is wrong. Should be:
Blind woman, who recently lost a baby, retreats to a cabin seeking catharsis, only to be stalked and raped; and everything goes wrong for six teenagers who wind up in her path of wrath.loading replies
dude I think u commented on the wrong movie :joy:
Seriously? This junk really won awards? It's not even a movie. More like a crappy CGI test demo where nothing exciting happens the whole way through. The only thing I remember is Clooney trying to hit on Bullock. Fail.

"...where nothing exciting happens the whole way through"
Did you lose consciousness during the movie?
Why do we need another suicide squad movie?

We didn’t, but it’s 100x better than the first
Hated it.
As simple as that.
Terrible way to take the series to. I mean it's not as bad as the prequels, because the acting is quite all right, but it hits so many bullshit moments where I was facepalming every other scene it's unbelievable.loading replies
@bejot you clearly facepalmed the whole movie and didn't see it properly
