Trivia
Reese Witherspoon replaced Natalie Portman in the lead role but dropped out to focus on season 2 of Big Little Lies (2017). Later, Portman returned in the lead role.

Goofs
In the swimming pool scene, once Lucy was upright and out of the pool the water in her helmet should be coming out as quickly as it leaked in.

Not so. Underwater there is pressure forcing water in and air out. Out of the water, the lost air has creating negative pressure, a vacuum, holding the water inside her helmet until they cracked the seal to let air in.

Quotes
Will Plimpton: You know Michael Collins?
Lucy Cola: Yeah, yeah. Of course. Apollo 11. He flew the command module for Neil and Buzz.
Will Plimpton: Yeah. So you know after he dropped them he circled the moon for hours. It's farther from Earth than any man has ever been. No light, no radio. And he wept, consumed by darkness and then, when he saw the sun again he wept some more. Inside the module he wrote, "I am now truly alone and absolutely alone from any known life. I am it."

4/10

watched it for to long to justify turning it off

Can't say much about this, Portman's accent is almost as bad a s the wig she wears in it, (apologies if its not a wig,)

disappointed was hoping for more.

We look for anything over 5/10 to at least make it pass some of the many hours pass during our extended time at home, this is where we draw the line of Passable, anything below this we would not recommend as it would be better to paint a wall then watch it dry.
