Goofs

The screw Mike dropped while working outside the spacecraft appeared to be a wood screw with tapered threads along its entire length. One is more likely to use a screw with machine threads which can replaced in the same hole with matching threads. Wood screws cut their own threads each time they are used..

User Reviews

doesnt deserve a high ranking even graded on an indie curve

It starts off watchable, albeit dull. When the low budget sfx for the outside of the ship and space look superior in realism to the inside of the ship, it is not hard to imagine that is only the beginning of the problems. I like sci fi movies, and I take the leap of the parameters they set up. This movie, though, just gets moronic. There are way too many times were this future spaceship doesn't even have the same obvious tech that was present a long time before today. Then, in the last 15 minutes or so, the movie just collapses at it tries to get the ending it wants when it had already painted itself into a different corner.
