Training people to live on an uninhabitable planet because the earth is becoming... UNINHABITABLE. Say that again slowly. Why does he have to go to Titan? Why can't they just train his body to survive the new harsh weather on earth? I don't have a problem with the acting and special effects, I just feel like the story was not well thought out.
What is he going to do all by himself on a remote planet ? He can't even reproduce because there is no Female ? And what will he eat ??? I am worried about him/ it.
It started off very well, but the end......nooooo.

I was so intrigued to watch this movie, the trailer I saw made the film look awesome. The first twenty minutes or so I really enjoyed. I got into it immediately, the acting was really rather good, the story very interesting, but something seems to change, it's almost as if they switched directors or writers, as the film just turns into a real mess, it was hard to follow, almost every character was hard to like, and you find yourself asking 'what's the point.'
I'll applaud the acting, and special effects, the latter in particular were great, but overall there was just something about it that I didn't like, if I'm honest I was bored.
What was he going to do on his own on that planet?
Mehhh. 4/10

Just watched Titan and wow, it made me angry. I rarely write movie reviews, but this one moved me to action. Since Netflix no longer allows reviews on its site, here's my first IMDB review.
This crappy script is a waste of excellent acting talent and awesome special effects.
Kudos to the actors who did the best they could with an uneven script, faux-science, WTF scenes and progressively more stilted dialogue.
The movie isn't bad for the first 45 minutes. I had figured out it wasn't going to have a satisfying ending by that point, but I wanted to see how they'd spin it, so I kept going. The faux-science was fun to eye-roll over.
But then our hero soldiers finally go through the full metamorphosis (after a "what? why did they need surgery?" scene) and are unable to talk, change facial expressions, write, or in any other way communicate except by "sonar and touch".
And from that point, the script went completely into a FTW-WERE-YOU-THINKING tailspin. So many stupid actions in such a short time can make a movie-watcher dizzy.
The coup-de-grace was the final 18 minutes. It's like the producers said, "Let's just do a few disassociated scenes. No one is watching anymore, anyway." I lost track of how many times I said, "Wait, what?" So many times.
Netflix, fess up. Is this steaming pile of a movie, and your other original programming, the reason you no longer allow reviews? If you can't handle poor reviews, improve your quality management. Now you've forced people to find other public forums to air their opinions. That probably means fewer positive reviews (because why go to the effort when we liked the movie?), more negative reviews (because we want to warn people away from bad ones) and lower ratings (because we're mad about having to click to another site to leave the review).

- GoofsAfter the first pool scene, Lt. Rick Janssen reads to his son "nitrogen which can be used to produce breathable oxygen". Nitrogen being a "pure" element (ie not a compound) and so being oxygen, it is not possible to "produce" oxygen with nitrogen.
