have to totally agree with kcwells

well i think the only problem of the movie was it didn't really know where to go.

it started like alien but nonono, no space alien horror is coming there (thank god). plot twist turned it into space survival. nice surprise

sadly it couldn't really take of from there. also the key factors - the deceases and the alien cargo still played a minor role, a starting point for the space survival plot.

the plot wasn't very thick. its hard enough to transport the tensions in a space emergency situation, even harder in such a futuristic environment. but in this movie it didn't really came across at all.

thats sad, because as kcwells already said it was technically very good. resonable believable characters - i hate those movies where people are bitten by a zombie and don't tell the group in self denial just to bring everybody in danger - here they act more logic, no they did it heroic

it was a great, not so much happy end, partly uncertain partly certain death and still left not a bad feeling.

sadly the movie was missing atmosphere too.

the alien plot was to quick,not mysterious enough, to much boring space survival... and still i cant rate this movie under 6

to - finally - too good the technical aspects, the actors also deserve 6.5-7. no nonsense just a bit better writing and this could have been a real bombatic movie

and if we consider this one was a TV its even more surprising. a 7 seven to compensate unjustified poor rating, a honest 6-6.5
