SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!
The whole "I'm gonna wrap myself in insulation and fly through space with a little bit of frostbite" part was pretty ridiculous. As soon as they discovered the crazy guy from Icarus 1 the whole movie went downhill. Everyone died too fast and the plot just got a whole lot less interesting.

You know, you don't actually depressurize instantly in space. It's possible to survive up to about 30 seconds in a vacuum, though you'll have some tissue damage.
Also, I thought it was a great movie except for how they turned it into a slasher flick at the end. That just seemed kind of stupid.
agreed. first half of the movie was great. second half was :roll:Originally posted by: abaez
Agreed, the first hour was very, very good. I was riveted. Once they loaded onto the first ship and found that guy, ugh, downhill from there.

Huh. I was under the impression that the zero pressure would pretty much immediately cause one to blow up but that's not really an informed assumption. He was probably floating for like 15 seconds or so.
I definitely agree with you on that part about it turning into a slasher flick. As soon as that guy was introduced it turned into everyone running for their lives before they get slaughtered by him.
Also, another gripe I had was that whole sequence at the very end when the weapon goes off. What is supposed to be happening? There's just sort of a wall of energy or whatever... didn't make much sense to me.
I think the movie had a lot of potential and could have been great but ended up mediocre.
