About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a paranoid, fast-moving sci-fi thriller about people acting strangely and trust breaking down; Not for you if you need tight plotting, steady tension, or subtle scares like Dark Skies.
Pros: eerie premise; strong lead performance; a few tense moments | Cons: uneven pacing; choppy storytelling; rushed resolution
