Stars: Colin Farrell, Tye Sheridan, Lily-Rose Depp
Writer/Director: Neil Burger
Lord of the Flies meets 2001: A Space Odyssey in this stylish and often suspenseful thriller, as a crew of teenaged astronauts find themselves battling nature, a possible evil interstellar entity, and each other in the deepest reaches of outer space.
Did I mention there are also echoes of
Space Camp here? And
High School Confidential?
It’s no criticism to observe that writer/director Neil Burger who has previously mined other genres to concoct entertaining hybrids like
The Upside and The Illusionist has taken elements of all these films and created a mostly entertaining stew.
