daffyduck_285 To begin with, the film seems quite interesting if you can forgive the 'nods' (nods?! More like gaping rip offs) to 2001: Space Odyssey and The Shining bar. It started off well and around the middle when Aurora learns of Jims secret, things seem to pick up and feel tense. But after this, it becomes something more that resembles Titanic in Space and the turns into a vomit inducing love story that leaves all shred of science and beliavility at the door. It started well, but by the end I was bored and didn't feel satisfied at all. Especially with everything that had happened prior to the 'Titanic' scenario, the ending just feels like a unicorns magic dust fart in the face of the audience.The cinematography is beautiful. The acting superb. But the story in itself, starts off promising and then just collapses into too many deux ex machina in too short a time, with an ending that just made me physically feel sick from how corny amd deflating it was.
drobert-1 The special effects were good but the storyline, while initally compelling, devolved into a contrived "Lifetime"-style movie
sabomarton Great movie! I can say just that . Begin is lonely but then comes everything fine . Very good
eismoc (Please note that this review might contain spoilers).If you have enjoyed the historic sci-fi movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey, then you'll probably fall in love with Passengers (2016). There is a lot of choices for all sorts of professionals working in movie making, the novelist chooses what details he uses to build the story, the director selects the ways he sees fit to lead the actors, ..etc.; and in this movie it seems to me that all professionals have made the excellent choices. The story of Passengers (2016) is extremely balanced. For those who criticize some role that appeared and disappeared without reason, I want them to imagine how boring and complicated the story will be if extra characters were emotionally involved, or how strange it'll be for a major incident to affect only one person. The selection of how events went by, has made the story to bring heavy-weight ideas, about human emotional and reasonable behavior, how a crisis may affect reason and how reason changes a crisis. The story is a nicely ordered hard-core sci-fi, means the science facts were fully respected during all parts (not like other over-rated ridiculous sci-fi movies such as Arrival). Visuals are extraordinarily beautiful, alongside a very precise and professional directing. The start of the movie is pretty powerful, as the end is. Passengers is a great movie, and deserves general rating of 9 at least. 10/10 without a moment pause.
