About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a heartfelt, funny space mission with clever problem-solving and high-energy tension; Not for you if you want serious, complex sci-fi like The Martian or Interstellar or if you dislike a more lighthearted tone.
Pros: big emotional stakes; witty buddy dynamic; impressive visuals | Cons: uneven tone; shallow science; pacing drags
