Another remake. A Hollywood one: sugary, corny,seasoned with million effects and musical underlining. Some good performances... but really under the level of the poetical and naive original movie.

And no, it is not the mentioned dutch short "The Space Between Us" (2015) It is the Soviet Sci-Fi Classic "Chelovek-Amfibiya" (1962), adapted from Sci fi novel by Alexander Belyaev.

But what I do dislike more is not reading the name of Belyaev in the writing credits. "Story: Guillermo del Toro". Not near. Story: Alexander Belyaev (1928) Adapted by: Guillermo del Toro and Vanessa Taylor.
