I really thought this movie would be something different, but instead it follows a generic found footage movie. The budget considering being quite low for a film kinda shows.

The acting was passable but it's the directing and writing that really affects the movie. The plot just gets lost along the way and the pacing suffers.

As a horror movie fan if you're expecting to get scared, then this film will pile on more disappointment. I was hoping that Chris as a horror fan would understand the genre more and stray away from it's usual tropes, but nope his movies falls into typical stereotypes.

I guess being a decent critic doesn't mean you will automatically become a good director and it shows painfully throughout the entire runtime of the film.

Its been such a long time to see a good science fiction movie without bringing down the realism through too many action scenes. This one is different, if u like movies like Moon(2009), 2001: a space odyssey, Solaris(2002, 1972) then this movie is going to take your breath away.

I came to this movie for three names Cuaron, Clooney, Bullock and it pays. Awesome visuals, great camera work(Especially the view from the helmet of the astronauts) but the soundtrack was nowhere near Solaris(2002), but still it was decent enough. And its not without its flaws though.

And last but not least watch it definitely in 3D...
