5th Passenger

The fanboi/shill reviews, or the poor acting.

I am unsure who figured these people, who acted in the past together, could still act ...together and succeed. The show is a modern B. Not that a B movie is bad.

The acting was rigid, forced and, at times, off key. The CGI was bad when ever the color red or orange was needed it seems ;)

If you are a Star Trek cast fan, there will be no deterring you from seeing this. If you are a sucker for IMDB ratings, do not be fooled, this rating is falsly inflated. The movie rating will balance out in the 4.2-5.0 range

If you watch this, it's almost certainly because you saw a Star Trek actor is in it. In fact, there are several of them, including Armin Shimerman and Tim Russ. Marina Sirtis appears in a small role. Honestly, I probably would have removed most of her scenes during editing. Until her last scene, they don't do anything but interrupt the plot. Shimerman and Russ have beefier roles, and they're both pretty good.

Some of the actors playing minor roles seem like they were handed a script five minutes before shooting began and got no direction. The script never really has anyone do or say anything intelligent, though there's some reasonably interesting worldbuilding early on. It doesn't go anywhere or have any meaningful effect on the plot, but it's there if you go digging for it.

I think they probably should have skipped the special effects if they didn't have enough money to do them right. I've seen horror movies that were shot on a cell phone and acted by people who were recruited from social media. They knew their limitations and turned out to be pretty watchable. Shooting for the stars is a dumb plan if you can't afford to make it there.

If this had been edited down to the length of a short film and uploaded to YouTube, the average rating would probably be almost twice as high, and there'd probably be some dedicated fans willing to help fund the director's next movie on kickstarter.

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.

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.

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.
