Survivor (2014)
I liked this movie, even though it is extremely derivative.
Kevin Sorbo played Captain Dylan Hunt in the TV series Andromeda. In this film he played the part of Captain Hunter! Furthermore, he came out with one of Dylan's favourite phrases: "It's never easy" OK, they are tongue in cheek aknowledging the overall derivative nature of the movie. I can go along with that.
One of my long term bug bears is that many warrior maidens in sci-fi/fantasy films do not have any physical credibility. This film does not make that mistake. The heroine, Kate, is well built with broad shoulders and obvious vital capacity. Ten out of ten for that.
There is an early hint when Kate's implanted computer describes the gravity as being "normal". Derivative - "Planet of the Apes". Also, a lot like "The 100." There is a great dearth of new sci-fi/fantasy films. This is jolly good knock about stuff. We need more of it!
