If you want to be completely depressed and bored, “The Midnight Sky” is the movie for you. A Netflix original, this is a space movie, set in 2049.
Dying scientist Augustine (Academy Award-winner George Clooney) is working alone at a remote Arctic research station when he learns of a mysterious global disaster. At the same time, he discovers a mute 7-year-old girl, Iris (Caoilinn Springall), who was accidentally abandoned in the Arctic when her mother was evacuated. He enlists her help to stop the Aether spaceship from returning to Earth from K23, a moon of Jupiter that was inhabitable for Earthlings.

Because it was supposed to be released in January this year, this was always going to be a 10-course Chinese New Year gut-buster of a meal. Still, nothing will prepare you for just how much has been jammed into this two-hour-plus record of the lives of heliborne heroes.

George Clooney s new film is fascinating for the ominous mood it conveys visually. Set against the aftermath of a global catastrophe, the sci-fi drama has poignant core, too. You spot profound intent in storytelling, and the comment it sets out to impart is an urgent one.
