I was a little disappointed because I was told beforehand that it was based on the Video Game called "Dead Space". Although there are parallels to Dead Space, the movie isn't based on it and wasn't as intense as the game can become. But I liked it. It was clever and moved along well. A lot more gory then scary, but most movie fare is these days. I don't like the cinematic technique of depicting chaotic violence by fast motioned jumbled hand held camera shots, which this movie uses. I prefer a well choreographed fight scene any day. On the other hand, this movie does have good special effects, and the plot does twist enough to have a clever ending.
