Review of Passengers (2016) by Chiek E — 03 Sep 2017

For me, it was the greatest interstellar love story with the worlds most winsome and bankable couple Chris Pratt and JL. Unfortunately Murphy's Law struck again. That aside, nothing cements love better than the couple working together to avert disaster and save more than 5000 humans on the space ship.

Brilliant graphics one would expect from a 110 million dollar budget. Sure a bing chunk of the budget went to the two superstars. Although necessary to save the human race, interstellar migration is still light years of our time in technnology and the demise of earth will come sooner than that.

Hence the premise of the story was entirely feasible. A beautiful and luxurious interstellar twirling space ship complete with swimming pool under the stars and a bar with a android bartender named Arthur who spoke Queens English or Russian and capable of making 1436 cocktails.

The chemistry between smokingly hot sultry Lawrence and handsome handymanly masculine Pratt was magic because their appeal can´t be any more appealing. The plot was wonderfully simple and based on primal needs of needing human company and the gallant hero sacrificing himself only to be rescued by the love of his life.

So its a greatest mystery this movie did not make pay dirt at the box office. Murphy´s law struck again.
