I pretty cool sci-fi/horror movie. Still looks very distinct.
a little slow and boring at times but it was good
Takes a while to get going, but when it does it's quite fun. Some of the design choices are cool and interesting, the space suits in particular. The latter remind me of the X-Men suits, from the early 2000s movies.
Interesting film; like a dark, extended, original series Star Trek episode; enjoyed the set design and pieces and some of the sci-fi ideas (I don't know if Ridley Scott saw this film, but there are some elements here that could have inspired parts of Alien); would have liked to see stronger horror elements in a film like this, though (the film is a bit too tame).
