There's a moment right at the end that would have elevated this film to something really worth recommending. Some movies greatly benefit from a conclusion open to interpretation. This is one of them. It gave me the same feeling I had all those years ago watching Total Recall. But they didn't do that here. The final scene is very clear and I think that was a poor choice. Unless the focus is commentary on human behavior, in which case it makes sense. Still, the alternative would have been spectacular.
How cool is Laurence Fishburne? He's been one of my favorite actors since Event Horizon + The Matrix, and in each project following that he never misses. Role of the captain he plays is pretty much perfect. Even when the twists, turns and second-guessing begins, it still fits whatever outcome you may have in mind. That kind of presence and versatility is pure talent, and I never get tired of seeing it. Everybody else does a great job in their respective roles, but Morpheus steals the show.
They likely could have removed 15 minutes and the film would have been better for it. You can definitely feel some drag. While this doesn't outright ruin anything, I probably would have rated it higher otherwise.

Slingshot is primarily a psychological drama, which happens to be set in a Science Fiction universe. But anyone going to this movie hoping for a space actioner or some space opera will leave very disappointed.
In a twisty turny narrative that could have been shortened by 15 or 20 minutes without losing any impact, the three lead actors give outstanding performances, but there is a lot of repetition, and the middle third of the film really drags.
At the same time, it certainly keeps you thinking, and the ending is extremely gripping and tense.
This is not a film at the same level as Space Odyssey, Or Solaris. But if you have a brain and you want to be provoked into thinking about the nature of love and humanity faced by existential crises this is not a bad movie at all.

The best part of this movie is the ending, which will deceive the viewer several times. Laurence Fishburne played his role, as always, perfectly. Casey Affleck did well, but I was never impressed by his performance, although this is just my personal subjective judgment. Yes, it's not easy to watch this movie to the end, and this is its main disadvantage, it was especially hard for me to watch Affleck's caramel flashbacks, but I still watched this movie - the film turned out to be quite good. Given the complexity of the plot and ambiguous characters, it is impossible not to mention the merits of the director. Visual style, musical accompaniment - all this works to create a unique closed atmosphere. The film may not become a cult classic, but it definitely deserves the attention of those who like thoughtful and ambiguous stories.
First off, I have to say that the film managed to surprise me because I was expecting a pretty bad production... Because 2024 continues to be a year where major studios market bad films with big actors and big directors...
"An astronaut on a potentially doomed mission to Saturn's moon Titan struggles to maintain his grip on reality."
The film, with its back-and-forth narrative reminiscent of "Solaris" (not the 1972 version, but more like the 2002 one), is directed by Mikael Håfström, who had already shown his inclination towards this style of storytelling in his earlier film "1408" (2007), an adaptation of Stephen King's short story of the same name, which brought him recognition from a wider audience.
Casey Affleck and Laurence Fishburne have given their best, and I think they've delivered a performance that's adequate for this middling film and doesn't deserve the harsh criticism it has received.
One wishes to see more of space in this film, which was entirely shot in a studio...
The film's score is composed by Lorne Balfe, and to give credit where it's due, the music is even better than the film itself.
At the end of the day, we, as fans of science fiction and horror cinema, are certain that as of 2024, we won't be getting any more masterpieces, but at least we want films that are decent. In this context, "Slingshot" is a film that "does the job."

And by another one, I mean yet another arthouse psychological thriller sci-fi. Again. What ever happened to the good old Sci-fi action survival thriller where nobody is "wrestling with the ghosts of their past", struggling with their sanity, or wondering what is real or not...blah blah. Seems like the vast majority of Sci-fi is that BS, not anything really interesting or entertaining anymore. Some of them had the potential to become great movies, but were ruined by the writing and the direction... and the plot, and the story...etc.
Please.... for the love of GOD, can someone make Sci-fi great again??

- CuriosidadesThe videogame "crypt junkie" is actually the vintage game Prince of persia (MS-DOS)
- Erros de gravaçãoAt one point, Zoe (Emily Beecham), says to John, (Casey Affleck) something to the effect of "And you were flying F-14's..." Assuming this film is set in the somewhat near future, and the fact that John attended the U.S. Air Force Academy, John would not be flying F-14's as that is a Naval aircraft AND hasn't been in the U.S. Naval inventory since 2006.
