Drei Astronauten starten zur 42. Mission auf den Mars, in zwei Jahren sollen sie zurück sein. Zur Crew von Captain Marina Barnett (Toni Collette) gehören die Medizinerin Zoe (Anna Kendrick) und der Biologe David (Daniel Dae Kim). Wenige Stunden nach dem Start entdecken sie einen unfreiwilligen blinden Passagier, Michael (Shamier Anderson). Eine Rückkehr zur Erde ist ausgeschlossen und schon bald stellt sich heraus, dass durch einen irreparablen Defekt am Versorgungssystem der Sauerstoff nicht für alle Passagiere ausreichen wird. Zehn Tage bleiben der Crew, um eine Entscheidung zu treffen. (Wild Bunch Germany)

Ein anständig inszenierter prozeduraler Science-Fiction-Film mit einer einfachen Prämisse und einem etwas zu starken Cliffhanger-Ende. Ein rührseliger Monolog mit dem Universum und eine Abhandlung über die Bedeutung von Algen und der Menschheit in Extremsituationen. Den Kritiken zufolge ist dies auch ein Film, der kollektive Blindheit verursacht.

Und der Preis für die langweiligste Science Fiction der letzten zehn, zwanzig, dreißig Jahre geht an... Stowaway - Blinder Passagier. Eine intime Science Fiction wie Moon - Die dunkle Seite des Mondes kann sehr gut funktionieren und sogar spannend sein. Aber hier hat Netflix wieder etwas verdammt falsch gemacht. Langweilig, langweilig, langweilig. Ich will den Kampf um Sauerstoff nicht herabwürdigen, aber die Handlung eines fast zweistündigen Films darauf aufbauen? Zeitverschwendung.

BLM. A pleasant watch. That’s right, it is strange that he got inside and even survived take off, but otherwise this is a lovely, stylish space exercise. The visually captivating space rope climbing sequence is definitely the high point of the movie. The actors are fine - a decent Netflix offering.

Stowaway is in many ways a woefully underdeveloped and unoriginal sci-fi survival drama that isn't even entertaining enough for what it's trying to sell. It's at least problematic to convince viewers of the authenticity of the portrayal of the astronauts' behavior in the face of a relentless crisis, while shamefully failing to resolve too many of the rational questions it raises. I take rocket science and mathematical calculations as part of space travel in general as the highest level of accuracy and rigor, and since the snags occur from the first few minutes, it's difficult to chew through a very rigid plot with that unexplained question for 2 tedious hours. I also had difficulty grasping the roles of all 4 characters, with one thrown onto the boat to represent the crisis cowering shyly in the corner, fearfully awaiting resolution, and on the other side the expendable captain who was only there to tear her hair out with stress. The story surprised me in places by unexpectedly dragging out the viewer's expectation of "Now it's got to go wrong!" only to then slap a sticker on it in the form of the most banal twist of genre anthologies. While the spacey visuals are magical in the climbing sequence, overall they don't crush impressions like other more familiar and spectacular predecessors. In the final minutes, the audience is split between criticizing or praising the work because of the dueling characters representing opposite poles: Humanity vs. Calculation, and depending on which side of the barricade you settle on, the final rather unfinished message will have resonating power. My personal impression remained somewhere in the range of "such a shame, Anna Kendrick's acting" and "is that all?", tickling my altruistic soul just at the heel.

A bit of the Cimrman "I suggest eating dogs" in space, which I'd give a fifth star if it answered the literally hanging question: "How the hell did he get there?" In all respects, this is a film exactly for me, i.e., quiet, not full of unnecessary effects and relying on the actors (the absolutely excellent Anna Kendrick) and the fact that you will find yourself in their situation and try to think for yourself how you would resolve it. P.S.
