Review of Capsule

Capsule (2015)
8/10
Interesting Cold War Title
24 September 2016
Warning: Spoilers
I actually caught Capsule back in April when it opened the Sci-fi London film festival 2016 on the big screen.

I didn't know what to expect when i arrived, i had heard nothing much about the film but i was pleasantly surprised by it. Im a bit of a sci-fi and cold war nut so found it intriguing. Edmund is captivating as Guy Taylor, he keeps you transfixed as he tries to figure out what happened to him, being on screen for 85 minutes of the movie is a tall ask but one he pulls off. The supporting cast as radio voices add different layers to the cold war theme throughout.

I certainly wouldn't want to be stuck up in that space craft, being ex MOD engineer i know a few things about planes from this era, one word, unreliable.

The film is well crafted for the budget level, that is independent film for you. Some elements could do with refining and honing but i was happy i managed to watch it on the big screen.

If you like Buried, and contained thrillers for a smarter audience then this should be on your list to watch.
