After an absence of nearly a decade from this genre, a buff (CGI enhanced) Sam Worthington (Sully) of AVATAR fame (and soon to be again) "once again" is transmogrified into an alien creature BUT this time with an idea towards colonizing Titan, for, predictably the Earth is dying from our misuse of it, and we've got to find another home in the nearby universe. Not having much screen time for AVATAR creatures or much of a homeland except a few minutes on Titan saves a fortune, after all this is NFLX--but you would have thought they'd spend on story. That's right, the first spoiler, Titan looks to be completely devoid of life forms. I hope he packed a lunch.
Which of course, didn't happen. Decent writing that is, I don't know about lunch.
It makes absolutely no sense to send one individual to a planet just to see if he'll survive. Flash Gordon made more sense in 1936.
Plot holes. The protagonist kills the lead military guy, who is fairly innocent, but leaves the mad scientist alone. The wife gets to inject him with drugs pharmaceutic ally used to treat depression (!) claiming this will give him a chemical lobotomy, but switches the hype for saline solution inexplicably kept in the same dispensing suitcase!!! MacGuffins abound, Hitchcock would be amused.
The newly formed creature can't communicate except by touch or mental telepathy, for whatever reason the scientists thought that might be important, so, I hope he has better reception on Titan, I can't even get four bars in Starbucks.
I wouldn't sue to get my 90 minutes of life back, because I hate lawyers more than this movie.
But not by much.
