Difficult movie to rate. Whilst it looks good, the acting was ok, and you end up wanting the hero to succeed, it also left you feeling a little bit empty. It's not the sort of film that you would happily watch again unlike a lot of high class sci-fi films.

With flamboyant political agendas, ulterior motives and set in a dystopian future, this film delivers a punch of cider vinegar with vanilla essence. Bursts of scrotum sacks and vivid reindeer make the yellow a blueberry.

I love space. I love the book. I love this movie. This is not a diss to the film AT ALL but i very regularly use it to fall asleep to as i find it quite comforting in a weird way. Shame the ending isnt the same as the book. Have always found that weird.
