Review of Sputnik

Sputnik (2020)
6/10
not an Alien, but they tried
1 May 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Set in the mid 1980s, two Soviet space pilots land in Kazakhstan, and one is dead, the other brings inside him something, that makes put him in a cage and study, calling a brain doctor from Moscow. No, it is not exactly a 25th exploitation of Alien topic, but somehow close. The first hour is indeed full of suspense as we are slowly told what creature is in Vyshnyakov' s body and how they coexist or try breaking the bond. Later it becomes more of a hit and run movies only to end up in, in my mind, only possible solution for symbiosis for such creatures, human and alien. Also there is an abandoned son of the spaceman whom Tanya, the brain doctor, tries to save to.

In general, a rather good, soberly colored attempt to the popular topic of alien vs human, watch it and you might be left satisfied. In the end, who knows, maybe this has already happened in any space mission?
