Rented from Amazon last night, I really like this movie. Pretty cool 80's space movie vibe.

Still not sure how I feel about this movie, but I would definitely suggest watching it. Feels straight out of a 70's style SciFi novel with modern imaginations.

I don't know what it was about this movie (fairly "simple" and straight forward), but I fucking loved every bit of it. Probably one of my favorite sci-fi flicks from the last 5 years or so.

if you're not sure about this move, just fast forward to when oberyn appears, before that, it's boring as shit.

Pretty good low-key SciFi flick with interesting setup and good actors. Definitely a watch if you hated both Prometheus and Covenant.

This was great. Rather unique setting with a unique look to it. Pascal playing Mal Reynolds with fewer morals was fun to watch.

Recommend it for any SciFi fan or people tired of the same old shit.

On Netflix as well.

Liked it a lot. Unusual, visceral feel to it, and I really had no idea where the plot was headed. Highly recommended.

Still streaming in Australia. Seems pretty weird that it would be de-listed in the US.

Downloaded and watched this the other night. I liked it, the retro style of it was cool.

Watched it - I really like the lead actor, he was good in Triple Frontier as well. I liked how the background science fiction in the movie was subtle and never really explained to any extent - you just gathered it through activity and tangential dialogue. Nice to not have it shoved down your throat. Like they can breathe but only through "filters". Like when it looked like the Dad was grinding up coffee early in the movie and you find out later when the girl rushes to reload the thrower that it was "ammo" or "charges". Interesting stuff.

It definitely kept me interested, I finished it over lunch at work. I give it a 7.5/10 or so. Didn't dazzle overly much but did not disappoint.

he's Oberyn, like the only good GOT character at this point

if you liked him, he was really good in Narcos and we'll probably swoon over him in the mandalorian
