Solid survival drama
Just like this director's other feature film 'Arctic', 'Stowaway' is a solid survival drama this time in the guise of a semi-hard sci-fi. If you enjoy survival films then this is probably worth your time.
The one-sided conversations go a long way to reinforcing the isolated nature of the crew, and the ending is entirely satisfactory (despite what some other reviewers might suggest). It looks good, has an atmospheric sound track and a small but solid cast featuring the always terrific Toni Collette.
It's not quite as good as 'Arctic' but I still enjoyed my time with this one and will be checking out the director's future work.
