The science is complete crap, but this is a damn fun romp! It is science FICTION, so whatever.
Still think they completely ruined the best line of the movie by spoiling “Consider that a divorce.” in the trailer. Whoever edited that together should have been thrown out to pre-climatic Mars.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deliriously kinetic action film that never lets you settle into certainty, every revelation destabilizes what you thought you knew, keeping you caught between breathless chase sequences and creeping dread about what's really happening.
