Computers, though slow and dangerous behind the wheel, actually CAN serve a purpose
Watched this for free just now and yeah, definitely worth my time... i'm prepared to go off, but wont so as not to be a spoiler.
Cons - too slow in developing, I WANT to be invested in a movies characters, but a movie like this doesn't necessarily require this much of it. It would be nice if they could atleast halfway explain what it was that was found on Europa, and if they couldn't... atleast get to the meat of things a bit quicker.
Pros - beautiful imagining of a modern day ship built to go that far, very believeable both inside and out, it reminded me of space shuttle footage, highly realistic. Awesome renderings of Jupiter, Europa and views of Jupiter from Europa, extremely realistic. Best of all, unlike Prometheus... the scientists onboard actually act like SCIENTISTS, not a bunch of compulsive, horny, petulant high school kids, they come off just like they should for the most part.
All things considered... glad I didn't spend $8 plus snacks, but glad I bothered to watch, i'd give it 75% of 100.
