A dazzling sci-fi epic that holds nothing back in its entirety. Claire denis' vision is an unrelenting masterwork packed to the brim with nerve-shredding fear and and a pulse-punding gravitational pull that sucks in the viewer and never lets go until the very end. I found this film more of a meditation on what makes humanity's backbone so spontaneous; there are many plot points and elements that seem justified by the notion that humans are unpredictable creatures and as we evolve, we'll continue to be more and more focused on following through with our own morals.

During most of its lifetime of about a billion years, the star will generate heat at its centre by converting hydrogen into helium. The energy released will create sufficient pressure to support the star against its own gravity, giving rise to an object with a radius about five times the radius of the sun. The escape velocity from the surface of such a star would be about 1,000 kilometres per second. That is to say, an object fired vertically upward from the…

This is a really disappointing effort from all concerned. It is unnecessarily abstruse and manages, quite successfully, to suck any joy or interest from the project more efficiently than any black hole could ever do. This is totally devoid of any realistic or palpable sense of emotion at all, as we watch former prisoner "Monte" (Robert Pattinson) and his daughter "Willow" (Jessie Ross) come to terms with isolation of an increasingly visceral existence in outer space. The acting and the writing are the stuff of a college project - even the spacesuits have more charisma, and it really does…
