Anndra's rating
This film was much better than I expected, it was relentless and heartbreaking in the ways I remember the book is. I would love to see what the director could have done with another hour, as time was obviously a limiting factor. But the cuts to the story were surgical and precise, allowing what was left to have its maximum impact.
The acting was superb, and made me miss some of the characters even more. But time constraints are time constraints and that's films for you.
The special effects were so good that they stopped being special effects for me. Although I have to say some of the zero-G acting was a little off.
The ending was slightly changed for reasons I don't really understand, and a big reveal was hinted at a little too much. But really, an excellent piece of work.

Ok, basically this is a popcorn sci-fi movie, but from the outset its obvious that it has been directed with a great deal of intelligence. You can count about 10 clichés that the film is building up to, but it only delivers on about three of them, and a couple of them have a twist to them that lets you know once again that the director hasn't assumed that you are an idiot. Kurt Russell's acting is truely superb and brings a depth from the character that is suprising and rewarding. Recommended if you've just seen something really stupid, and want to rebuild your faith!
