Review of Europa Report (2013) by David P — 05 Mar 2017

This is not going to be everyone's cup of tea. Its essentially part documentary (mockumentary?), part sci-fi film, about a team of astronauts sent to Europa, one of the moons of Jupiter, to investigate the possibility of there being microscopic life in the oceans underneath Europa's vast ice-caps.

You need to like outer-space type-stuff (which I do) and some of the films set-pieces are very much like sequences from Gravity, but as the film trundles along, the interest levels start to rise, as does the tension, and overall quality of the film.

In the end, I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised, as I really enjoyed this, but as I say, this sort of thing is right up my street. Other reviews I had read of it weren't particularly great, but I enjoyed it, and I think other Sci-Fi'ers will too.
