This movie was incredibly void of a consistent storyline or character building other than through the urgent communications generated by the destructive forces of such things as meteor strikes and space debris smashing into aircraft. George Clooney admits he wants to remain at a space station that will keep him isolated and alone and where he continued slowly dying with a terminal kidney disease. Meeting suddenly, without warning, Clooney stumbles upon a seven or eight-year-old girl who either will not talk or cannot talk named Iris. I suppose that is the one relationship capable of building in a fatherly fashion. Trying to figure out the goals of this scattered mass of floating humanz across space is not easy. Has Earth Decayed to the point where they had to leave it to find better accommodations on another planet? That seems to be the case with one spaceship that took off to a moon orbiting Jupiter thought to contain a similar atmosphere and environment that presumed to allow humans to live on,but apparently that was not the case once they arrived, and so they fled to find contact eith a more supportive planetary home. Overall, I admit to having to very patiently wait out the end of the film as there was so little to maintain my attention. How would I rate this movie? Perhaps 3 out of 10 Stars for it is disappointing at too many levels.
