jaigurudavid The plot is pretty much a mashup of "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" with a bit of "Silent Running" thrown in. Nothing original. Thankfully the cast is small because everyone but the actor playing the lead is awful.

brooks250 OK, right out the gate there are some major problems with this low-budget scifi effort: 1. This crowd-funded feature screams its poverty in almost every scene. The pivotal scene early on when our intrepid astronaut learns he's going to explore the outer solar system is a meeting of four men, with one laptop in a very small Ramada Inn conference room. 2. There is never an explanation provided why NASA would embark upon such a critical mission with only one astronaut on board (Later 3 Chinese astronauts die on a similar mission). The insanity of this one-man approach is beyond suspending disbelief.OK, that said, still, I thought this film had some exciting moments of exploration, and once I settled into the bargain basement effects, I think the protagonist's performance carries the day.So I'm giving this one 8 stars to boost the 5.5 star rating of a movie that deserves a qualified seven stars. O h yeah, unlike some others, I also liked the ending. But I did have some nitpick questions about little things such as food and fuel???

shelsie I am an actor and this is actually my first review on ImdB. I chose to write this review to encourage movies like this to continue to be produced. It was a great effort on a shoestring (~$80K) budget, and a great sci fi plot similar to Mission to Mars (one of my top 10) mixed with Contact and 2001. It held my attention and was entertaining. Yes, there were some unanswered questions in the storyline, there were one or two plot holes, and the ending was perhaps setting itself up for a sequel, but that would be okay in my book. I found it interesting, well acted overall, and worth the time spent. Also, the cinematography was spectacular!

Fredrick Jackson The first thing that I did not understand about this lousy movie is why would America (N,A.S.A) send only one man on a mission this important. The Chinese sent a least 3 and we still don't know what happened to them. The Chinese it seems were just being used as bad guy's to create some kind of plot tension. This movie was cheap and made very little sense to the science fiction community. The ending was abrupt and made no sense. Some reviewers keep saying it's about a sequel, I think they just ran out of story and didn't know how to end it. There will not be a sequel to this rubbish. Watch it only if you have absolutely nothing else to do or watch.
