Review: Sci-fi tale Voyagers crashes and burns
It wants to be Lord of the Flies in space, but Neil Burger s story isn t even Maze Runner -quality
Adam Graham
The fate of the human race has been placed in the hands of a bunch of teenagers in Voyagers, a buffoonish story about the nature of man with the behavioral insight of an issue of Highlights for Children.
Director Neil Burger ( Divergent ) steers this ship like he s come up with something profound about society, conflict and man s instinct. Rather it s Lord of the Flies in space, minus the wisdom or understanding of William Golding s novel, replaced by silliness and a cast that is not up to the task of its storytelling.
Review: YA sci-fi thriller Voyagers doesn t quite take off
