Was almost not going to give this movie a pass, having a feeling that it was going to be a bloated mess.

And oh my what a bloated, drawn out, rudderless and boring bloated mess it was!

I have never felt like walking out of the cinema while watching a movie but at the half way point of this film i was tempted, it was that bad.

The story was a meandering affair not really going anywhere from start to finish with nonsensical and cliché dross thrown in for good measure.

It didn't feel like a sci-fi, more like a soppy drama with a few sci-fi elements thrown in and the special FX where nothing special, a few OK scenes but for the most part it was bland bland bland.

I thought it was going to be an innovative, trippy Kubrikesque like film with a lot of bizarre and amazing visuals and strange and unique vistas and scenes, aliens, strange technologies, Otherwordly Gods!

Instead it boiled down to a silly soap opera with bickering astronauts and crying family members. Avoid.
