I waited for this one a for a while. I had to be in the right frame of mind. And then I watched this one on a quiet evening and found myself enjoying it.
Wake a Man up on a vast spaceship ahead of schedule, with no way of going back into Hibernation, knowing that he will never live to see the end of the journey. He's Alone, but he's surrounded by sleeping people...What would you do?
For a Science Fiction movie, it moved at a leisurely pace...Sans Space Battles, Sans slavering Aliens, Sans Homicidal Central Computers, Sans crawling outer-space monsters...It's an accidental relationship movie on a ship light-years in the middle of nowhere...
The Premise was believable.
The Characters were likable.
Their Actions ... 'Stood to Reason'
The Moral Question was commendable.
The Spaceship was AWESOME.
The Ending could have used a better formulation, but it was nicely poetic just the same...
Star Wars or Star Trek this isn't. But it's certainly not Grade B Late night CableTV dreck. Rent this one on a cool Saturday night.
OH...Totally Girlfriend Approved!!
