Well, it had actors. And it had dialog. And there was a plot. So I guess it was a movie. Nothing overtly bad about this movie. But nothing really great either. Just a movie about a problem in space and a plot that crawls along, with no real twists (except predictable ones), no great dialog, no great acting. Just a movie about some stuff that happens. OK to watch if you want to pass the time. Just don't expect a lot.

Zoe (Anna Kendrick), David (Daniel Dae Kim), and Marina Barnett (Toni Collette) launch into space on a two year trip to Mars. Less than a day after takeoff, a 'Stowaway', Michael (Shamier Anderson) is found in an access panel and with his discovery, the life support systems begin failing. It becomes a race against time to find a way to survive aboard a space craft without enough oxygen for four people.

The acting is fairly well done and the script is predictable, but entertaining. The flow is solid and the ending is satisfying, but a lot of questions are raised about the validity of the science around the film. Why do certain plot points need to happen? This film feels a lot like 'Gravity' (2013), in that it's enjoyable if you don't think too much about it.

Worth a once over.

This is one of the rare times i agree more with the legit critics rather than the users.

Its not a 10. But certainly not a 5.5 either.

I dont know what people expect anymore. I wonder if its an ADHD thing.

The characters were good. Good story and writing too.

Sure its a slow burn but not a waste of time in my opinion.

Just watched it, and i was initially put off by all the negative reviews and the rating. But I love sci-fi, and the actors are good. So I have it a try.

I was never disappointed. Nor was there any regret I watched it.

It moves slow. It feels for the most part realistic. Yes it takes a few artistic liberties. Most of the time it feels real. And if your not very hung up on that physics has to be 100% accurate, this will work fine. Im not going to give away the ending. But I liked it.

The film is slow, but feels real thanks to the directing and script. Yes, there are a few very big things we never get an answer for. But it would not impact the story much If we did. The story is about the stowaway passenger and how to handle a mission turned up side down because of that. How to say professional and committed while under a lot of stress. And being faced with impossible decisions.

The film is not prefect. It has its flaws or rather, It does not do anything wrong. It just could have been more.

I still liked it. It was a good film. 7 out of 10.

What can I say, there are no big bangs, no supermans, no Gravity suspense. In my opinion this is the way normal astronauts would act. They got that spot on. There is a lot of problems from the point of science (imprecise and impossible), but well, who cares. It is a movie, not a documentary. I actually liked it. I see those negative reviews as a little too harsh. It is not a film for everyone. Not a film for adrenaline junkies. But if you like space and space adventures, then it is for you.

This is the first time I've seen Anna Kendrick in a serious dramatic role and she nailed it. This is a movie based on a moral dilemma but it also deals with themes of courage, self-sacrifice, hope and resourcefulness. There were a lot of science inconsistencies but the movie was not about science but was all about the premise. Excellent casting with Toni Colette, Daniel Dae Kim and Shamirr Anders giving solid performances. I give this film a 6 (fair) out of 10. {Moral Dilemma Drama}

Space is such a great and fascinating setting for a movie. You get the beauty of it, but you also get an unmatched sense of claustrophobia and isolation. 'Alien' used the tagline "In space no one can hear you scream", but it really applies to any movie set in space. You have to mess up pretty badly to make a bad movie set in space - I'm looking at you 'Jason X'.

I knew nothing about 'Stowaway' going in and it was a very different plot to what I expected it to be. I expected it to be more of a thriller with characters turning on each other and secrets being revealed. Instead it was very different to that, falling far more into the drama genre. It's a reasonably simple story when you think about it, but it's effective enough for the movie to keep ticking over. The runtime is nearly two hours, however it never feels like it's dragging.

I think the main reason it never feels like it's dragging is because the characters are so likeable. There are only four members to the cast, but they are all excellently written and all performed very well by what is a strong ensemble cast. No one character ever dominates or takes over the film. They all work nicely together and the movie is stronger for it.

Another thing I really liked was that I felt like I had no solid grasp on how the movie was going to end. It felt like anything could happen spanning the full range of the spectrum. A happy ending wouldn't have surprised me and a devastating ending wouldn't have surprised me. You'll have to watch the film yourself to find out how they went about that though. I had a good time with 'Stowaway' and would say it is worth your time.

Excellent and plausible buildup to a suspenseful nothing. Plot holes galore didn't prepare us for the monumentally abrupt ending. Despite the lack of character development the movie was working well. But the lack of dialogue regarding their predicament only compounded the fact that the tale was lost from the get-go. Some lovely scenes, competent acting, elegant special effects. But at some point, the producers rang on the red phone to say that the party was over. Very disappointing.

Perfectly fine movie with a human dilemma at the center of it. Go for it.

Stop raising the price of people's subscription to keep churning out this utter garbage all the time! The cast literally means NOTHING without a decent well written story & this was just a predictable snooze fest!

Just like this director's other feature film 'Arctic', 'Stowaway' is a solid survival drama this time in the guise of a semi-hard sci-fi. If you enjoy survival films then this is probably worth your time.

The one-sided conversations go a long way to reinforcing the isolated nature of the crew, and the ending is entirely satisfactory (despite what some other reviewers might suggest). It looks good, has an atmospheric sound track and a small but solid cast featuring the always terrific Toni Collette.

It's not quite as good as 'Arctic' but I still enjoyed my time with this one and will be checking out the director's future work.

It's a good movie and it'll soon get you hooked. The acting and music are great and compliment each other. The one massive problem with the movie is the ending...I mean WTF? It finishes abruptly. Felt sad about the ending and furious about why it ended the way it did. Anyway I still liked it. So... I wholeheartedly recommend this movie.

I hate it when the writer decides to jump off a cliff and gives the audience the middle finger. What's the point bruh?

Wonderful special effects, made it very believable. Unfortunately the plot was so mundane and really very ordinary! Even the unspeakably cute Anna Kendrick couldn't make it interesting (bit of a departure for her?). Should've spent more money on the script.
