Space Oddity

What do you need to be alive (Despite food , water,oxygen, ...)? Yes , you need Hope/Dream, Odd ? No it is not Odd , it is Real (Jeremiah 29-11 ). It is essential for life,And some of people around you are pro/against your dream/hope (Romans 4-18),This movie tries to show this. Hope/Dream helps you to find your way to reach your goals(Psalm 62-5). Great actors like Kevin Bacon and Kyle Allen in this move attract your feeling by their play, Also great director Kyra Sedwick (side by side with her husband Bacon and Rebecca Banner ) is the the reason which this movie wonderfully/amazingly came out.

Despite Kyle Allen's (Alex) lackluster performance, the rest of the cast manages to salvage the movie with their best efforts in a predictable plot. The most rewarding aspect of the film is the development of Jeff and his daughter Liz's relationship, as Liz's tough exterior gradually melts away to reveal her love for growing flowers. However, with the looming threat of a ruined planet and inevitable destruction, it seemed likely that Alex would leave for Mars. The cover of David Bowie's iconic song, "Space Oddity," provides a glimmer of hope. But unfortunately, the final plot twist was predictable and underwhelming, resulting in a mediocre rating of 5.5/10, which can be rounded up to 6/10. Would I recommend this movie to watch? No. If you watch, would you like it? Not sure!

In our age of CGI nonsense, reboots and legacy sequels, it's nice to see something a bit different.

I thought this was a nice little B/indie film, with some nice messages and performances.

It's a film stolen by a lovely performance Alexandra Shipp as the love interest and nearly spoilt by a hammy one from Simon Helberg, whose 'big' name you imagine helped this get made.

A nice little film overall.

25 minutes is as long into this that I lasted. Despite it being a tea time viewing and expecting something light and airy I guess I thought kevin Bacon would add some gravitas? But its likely that his fee took up a good percentage of the B movie budget?

Is really cleanly filmed and the garden scenes are probably the star attraction. The premise of travelling to Mars is pretty ridiculous, and just serves as a hook for sci fi fans, 20 minutes in you will realise that its basically a rom/com, with the usual, cheesy boy meets girl setups. Which is great if thats what you are looking forward to?

Maybe the rest of the 1 hr 34mins runtime rustled up some Philosophical, life affirming moments, but I took my chances and decided to save an hour or so of my life..here on earth!

Amazing movie. It makes you think about life and the little things that should make us happy every day, but we forget to pay attention to them. Few films unfold the meaning of life in such a way. The story is good, at the beginning it starts a bit vague but then it unfolds its full potential. My only quibble is that I don't think this film can be described as a genre comedy, leaving that aside I recommend watching it. I really liked the parts where they try to make us think about what we are doing to the environment and what effects it has on nature and ourselves. If everyone who watches this film gets its meaning the world will be a much better place.
