5th Passenger

I had the opportunity to see this film on the big screen. I think what we have to remember is that the effects are astonishing. The viewer will question if they are watching the set or a green screen shot, its that clean. The story is a culmination and mix of ideas cleverly weaved together with an ending that will not leave you disappointed. Some highlights were seeing Doug Jones not in makeup or costume, and Tim Russ as a bad guy to root for. I think the negative reviewers need to consider the budget and quality you are getting. You don't buy a Honda and expect it to drive like a Ferrari. Just like I wouldn't expect this movie to have the same draw as a Star Wars. Knowing this I really enjoyed it for the entertainment value and underlying relevant hints at current events. Well done.

The plot lines are not new. There is a space crew in trouble. There are conflicts over authority. There is some perceived alien presence threatening the crew. There is a possible underlying government project.

The production is better than a typical sci fi TV show but not trying to extend the boundaries of CGI which seems to disappoint some. The ending may disappoint some as there is no extended battle. If you iike sci fi. most will at least accept it. I rate this is an average for many of the lower budget sci fi movies. That is, watchable since it should be about the story.It is a plus if you are a Star Trek fan to see familiar actors.

Note: It is cannot be a waste of 2 hrs since it does not even last that long.

I was entertained by this low budget sci fi film. Yes it's a bit shaky in places. Couple of wooden acting moments. But for the most part it's a good bmovie film with passable cgi effects. The script obviously borrows greatly from Alien but with a twist. .......I did guess before the reveal but it wasn't too obvious. Credit where it's due. You can see it was made with passion by young energetic filmmakers who must have worked very hard to get it completed. And no.......I do not know anyone involved with the film. Ha ha. Not as bad as the quite frankly ludicrous 1 star ratings make out!? Give it a chance.

Too many negative reviews and poor ratings don't make this movie that bad. In fact I quite enjoyed it. The movie moves at an acceptable pace, the story is fine and the acting is okay.

It looks like this is another film that I rate higher than what the majority viewers think. Usually it is the other way around. I consider this movie good enough to make it very watchable and pleasant to view. It fits perfectly in the sci-fi genre.

For a movie made on a shoestring it is an admirable result.

If I could give it a -10, I'd complain I couldn't give it a -11.

Unbelievable bad script and acting (as in none). Homeworld 1 had better graphics, heck, I'm pretty sure Half Life 1 will hold up to this. It may have the tag "sci-fi", but I'm voting for IMDB to add a "sci-cry" tag, though Half Life 3 may be released sooner then that happening...

Edit; Atleast the keyboard warriors are telling the truth, the movie really sucks.
