Recensie (16)
Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt are showing prime acting talent in this movie. On the other hand, there are also Laurence Fishbourne and Michael Sheen who could strike your fancy. It’s basically a pretty intimate sci-fi that’s enticing exactly because of this intimacy. Personally, I was very pleased. Technically precise, brilliant as far as the actors go. The question is: what about the director’s take on this? I hear that that the ending wasn’t for everyone, but I liked it. As for me, I was satisfied and happy for each and every new sci-fi that catches the general public’s interest. Especially when it’s as high-quality as this one.

Two acting superstars fly through space, have adventures and find their way to each other despite a repulsive lie. And that's it. Passengers gives a lot of space to Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence, and both use it to no end, but unfortunately they rely more for charisma than interesting characters. The chemistry between the characters and the love line is the most interesting thing about their story, but the problem is that it takes up about a third of the film and without it Passengers runs out of breath. And the finale itself is downright bad. Pratt and Lawrence, however, try to push it forward at all times. What's next? Nice production design, good visual effects and some pretty thrilling scenes. So all in all, a pretty solid film, but I would have expected more from two of the most popular acting faces of our time.

A hi-tech technological treat in the thrall of routine, passionless melodrama, in which the filmmakers figured that if they couldn't pull off the philosophy or the careful mating call, a bit of spectacular fire at the end would save them. The opening twenty minutes are from another world and the finale from a well-known universe where hysterical laughter can be heard.

I am very pleased and actually surprised how much I liked Passengers. From start to finish, a very engaging and mysterious intimate sci-fi flick that is pulled up by the excellent Chris Pratt and the sexy Jennifer Lawrence. Morten Tyldum puts on an enjoyable romantic romp where the chemistry between the leads sparkles, the visuals are a delight, and the final play with gravity is literally breathtaking. A very enjoyable and entertaining affair. 80%.

Passengers is a nicely done “exciting sci-fi romance” for which the most important thing is that the color of the costumes
matches the eyes of the central duo. The set designs and visuals were inspired by everything from 2001 (the ship’s
interiors) to Gravity (flying outside of the ship), while adding a nice idea with a zero-gravity pool. It’s a pleasant movie
for the target audience of The Hunger Games. However, only about 30% of the hugely promising premise was actually used.
I’d like to see this made by Inárritu or a young Ridley…
