After reading the less than tepid reviews, I was very surprised by how good the first two acts of this sci-fi actioner were, and how heady and existential the themes it doesn't quite fully engage with are. A dreadful and actually unnecessary third act and frankly lame performance from Chris Pratt crash things back to earth. However I now realise what I've been missing in the stellar Aussie actress Yvonne Strahovski, who is a revelation and who along with an excellent JK Simmons, deserved a movie on their own. Stay for the widescreen effects.
