Just about to watch but whilst I want a bit of SF escapism, I want something not totally bloody devastatingly downbeat.
Opinions?😁
Started watching it today but gave up about halfway through. Slow. Depressing. Annoying. Not sure how it ended. Maybe a happy ending, I don’t know. But life is too short for crap like this.
The book was melancholy but hopeful. Similar feel to Station 11.
Ok, just finished it.
I've a fairly high tolerance for SF which helped.
Deeply average. It's not totally awful but... Actually yeah, that's it. It's not totally awful.
I watched it last night, certainly would not bother me to never see it again. IMO the only good bit was the spacewalk.
Bit depressing for pandemic Christmas, really!
Rubbish. So slow. All the action was in the 30 second trailer.
Was it ever billed as an action film? The book is a meditation on relationships, and repercussions of the decisions we make in life.
oh! Had that lined up for tonight - I think I'll watch Zulu again.
I enjoyed it. Quite thought provoking, but If you're expecting Star Wars meets James Bond, look elsewhere.
That’s just knocked this evenings plans in the head.
Any other recommendations? Was considering starting the expanse
I liked the Expanse. Someone will come along soon and say it's not like the books but I've never read them so enjoyed the TV series.
Expanse deffo.... I've watched the lot. Well worth it
Mando, if you haven't and been in an alternative reality recently.
Dark Matter is another to find.
Currently 80mins in to the midnight sky and despite my absolute love of sci fi films I’m utterly bored of this drivel, how the **** did this film end up in such an incoherent mess, the current scene in the airlock as they are waiting on capsule pressurisation to offer aid in maya’s medical emergency after the spacewalk to fix the communications failure reminded me of waiting for the door safety lock to open on my bloody washing machine after a wash cycle. Can’t be arsed to find out what happens to them all-they can all ****ing die.....end of film for all that I care. I’m off to tidal to listen to music instead.
Not depressing as much as plain boring.
It was a borefest.
The sequence of:
Let’s fly somewhere not mapped > oh no, damage to spacecraft > are they gonna have to do a spacewalk > yes they are > oh hopefully no one will get hurt during the walk
Every ****ing spacey film of the last few years. It’s just so predictable.
The bits in the Arctic were watchable enough. Especially the totally unpredictable jeopardy of “oh look, somewhere dry to sleep for the night...” 😀
Apologies, someone get the mods to spoiler tag this post but a film like that doesn’t deserve “spoiler alert.”
Must admit, the central features of the plot were obvious about five minutes in. Tried to ruin it for my wife by telling her, but she had already fallen asleep.
Did the first 30mins at normal speed, watched the rest largely on FF bar the space walk bit which was also normal time. Don’t feel I missed out on anything this way 👍👍 won’t watch again

this, I’m no cluedo but the ‘twist’ was predictably obvious. I wanted to like it, but agree it was dull

My thoughts exactly
just gone to bed at some point into it, quite far into it, but no idea how far.Tomorrow will be another day and it's already forgotten. Netflix is complete and utter codswallop unless you have a wealthy mate to offer you one of their free multiple account access. No way would I pay a penny for it.
Wanted to watch peaky blinders & series 2 of discovery afterwards
