Just okay

No white men here. I will let it slide, since there are only 4 characters, so we should not expect a representative sample.

Vague spoilers follow.

The director/writer said in interviews that the film aspires to be scientifically accurate. Many reviews on IMDB point to logic or science errors that don't actually exist, like they think centrifugal force would not create a simulated gravity effect, LOL. Also, some viewers missed the fact that an oxygen tank was leaking, which then explains a crewman's actions. One thing I wonder: should a solar storm be visible, as it was in the film? Usually not, but here the solar storm is interacting with a spinning spaceship that is magnetized by the solar radiation, and I cannot be certain what would happen. The movie's biggest implausibility is the lack of redundancy for a critical system on the spaceship. There is also the issue of how a stowaway went unnoticed, but at least there we are more free to imagine it could happen somehow.

Alas, the movie is dull. The situation is interesting, but I feel the director only scratched the surface of the character dynamics.

Still, it could have been worse. At least it steers clear of many things I dislike in other movies, like excessive action, Hollywood tropes, and one dimensional villains. So, it's watchable.
