The Challenge

Though some parts of the movie takes place in space, you don't categorize it as science-fiction but rather drama. This gives us a clue of a new era not only in space but also in film industry.

Many scenes are not fictious, they are real. They match with what we saw at documentaries about International Space Station (ISS).

I'm not sure whether the blood in an open wound would behave like that, or how real was the operation. That is something a medical doctor can talk more about.

It also seems very dangerous to allow to carry a sharp object during space walk.

The movie deserves an eight from me not only because it is the first movie ever to be filmed in space, but also its extraordinary scenario.

Not a fan of Russian cinematography. I watched many Russian movies and didnt't find them good enough. Especially those with sci-fi theme. Only one I found to be more than just watchable, was " The ninth company". But, I went to watch this movie due to curiosity of it being filmed in ISS, and I must say that this was by far the best Russian movie I've ever watched. Everything was so realistic that one could get a feeling of what is it like being in space. Only downside is "acting" of some of the crew members, but considering they were real astronauts and not proffessional actors, that wasn't big deal. Overall, better then the most of American space movies. I would recomend this movie.

This is the first film of its kind. It's very interesting and incredible. Everything feels very real and true (because this is reality). I envy the actors who were able to fly into space, realized their dream.

The actors play very well. The main character is pretty. The astronauts themselves are also real, of course, they don't play very well, but they tried.

I was surprised that, probably, some scenes of the film were shot in outer space, the director and the actress were allowed to go into space, it's amazing.

The film itself is probably not the best from an artistic point of view. But the film is unique, to support it appreciated positively.

The plot is very refreshing because its so realistic with no overemphasized scene so often seen in Hollywood's movies.

If you expected some sci-fi movie you are into the big surprise. All scene are realistic and it gest so much better when you are aware "this scene inside space station are really shoot inside space station".

It is a great success that they managed to create a plot that is interesting to keep your attention all the time even the scene is "realistic".

For those expecting space sci-fi drama are probably to be disappointed, for other they will be surprise that whole action is going on real-life present space station.

Big recommendation to watch this in cinema.

Absolutely great movie, everything is there. Every second is worth watching. First feature-length fiction film shot in outer space. The actors play very well. The main character is pretty. The astronauts themselves are also real, of course, they don't play very well, but they tried. It was really cool to see the amazing achievements of engineering and science in real life and documented like this, and I felt like I was witnessing something special. Congratulations to the team and the people of Russia for making history! Few movies make one remember that there is still time to do something extraordinary, to push the limits of humankind, but truly. Stole my heart.
