Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

two stars for stellar CGI effects and cinematography. the rest is pure drivel. So disappointed with this, they had the whole franchise to build on and yet again we got really stupid astronauts who do the stupidest things. Plot holes galore, broken science facts and imbecile characters just take away the immersion of what could have been a fantastic movie. You just dont change directions in space and drive to the right to check out mysterious planets that havent been scanned before in charted space. The public is already educated on fuel needs, insertion levels, burn rates etc to just buy that whole 'oh well, lets turn right and drive by eh' stuff. Why cant the on board computer push the button to deploy/retract solar sails when needed? Why use a humanoid to do that? Why arent the settlers trained properly, in such that when encountering a new planet with new microbes, environment, species, air etc that they dont run around smelling, poking, lazing around etc? Why even send in humans to scout? Why send the entire on board team to scout???? they are so high tech to build a starcraft yet dont have drones to do space repairs or scout missions? why only one landing craft for over 2k settlers and gear?? Why does the medic act like a hair dresser and not do the basic quarantine procedure? What is the back story of the original ... oh just forget it, too many stupid choices. they really needed to preview this and get peoples reactions before releasing this. the script is just terrible. better yet, just watch the movie muted to get the gorgeous space views and cgi
