How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

Two strangers wake alone on a vast ship, forced into an intimate bond while confronting a catastrophic threat. It's a claustrophobic romance where attraction blooms against the dread of a malfunctioning vessel and the knowledge that everyone else is still asleep.

Hmmmmm. I am conflicted. I was pretty invested, especially as they leaned into Jim the Villain, until all the ship action started. I didn't like the ending. Sometimes it was a little rom-com-ish, and I don't think that was the move. It looked cool in 3d. Pros and cons, I suppose.
