reviews should consider that this is a low budget scifi b-movie, so benchmarks have to be set accordingly.
the plot is not groundbreaking, special effects are not very special, characters are not developed and acting is student like.
i've seen almost all relevant sci-fi movies, most of them with far higher budgets, and this one definitely has something special. somehow stupid, somehow brilliant. camera, editing and light are involving the viewer, technically well done. the idea of the film is worth more - with a 130 million "after earth" budget this movie would be a milestone.
anxious in all aspects, "dark space" is a movie which delivers polarizing entertainment. a story, which is well told, with the given resources. for me, a surprise.
