Selfies
Positive: To whomever invented FF. Negatives: 1. Glacial - as one person described it. Well, if watching ice melt is your thing then have at it. 2. If sharing "selfies" with the world and former friends (used to be friends until you inundated them with "selfless") then the preponderance of head/facial closeups, mostly of our couple, will have you screaming for an escape. 3. If simulated sex on a bunk bed excites, there is some of that too, but it was pretty boring. 4. Not very believable expedition behavior on the part of everyone from scientists to ship captain. Acting was too scripted, and rote reading robotic. 5. Even the more documentary aspects were brief and cheap e.g. whale in ocean, penguin on land, ice wherever it happens to pop up. 6. Even the background music throughout the film didn't fit with the environment. Sounded monotonic like a cello out of tune. I suppose it was to represent isolation/vast desolation. I would just as soon go into a closet and shut the door.
