This is quite possibly the best little indie sci-fi movie I've ever seen. Admittedly it's much more of a drama than a sci-fi and that usually doesn't bode well with me but in this case Brit Marling's acting drew me in and kept me from turning off the film in search of another film in more of a Prometheus type setting to watch.
I'm glad that I did - one thing that I found astounding is that Brit hadn't done all that much since this film (I'm watching well over a decade after this film was released). Her acting was absolutely phenomenal here and she's absolutely gorgeous and obviously multi-talented in that she co-wrote the script.
While the film won't be for all sci-fi fans where it really is more of a drama that shamelessly ignores scientific accuracies, I think for most it's well worth the time to watch. I'm glad I ventured out of my usual realm and gave it a watch, even in 2023.
