It's not what you think it is, and that makes it all the better

The environment isn't "Mars" enough?

Um, they're INSIDE a GIANT BUBBLE.

The little girl is bratty and sulky and rebellious?

Uh, her father, her favorite person, was killed by this asshole Jerry that her mom is now making nice with, and the guy's trying to Stockholm Syndrome them with creepy niceness? I'd have tried to stab the guy in the throat with a broken chicken bone or anything sharp any and every chance i could get. If anything, the child character's actions and responses are conservative.

The movie is exceptional.

It's not the film you think it's going to be.

It's an "Art" film too, so, expect a slow pace, and expect to not understand or "get" why what's what, and try to listen to what the film director and story is trying to say instead of trifling.

All the actors do phenomenal work.

For the budget this film had, it flies well above expectations.
