Amy Adams performs well on the whole - very well cast (2 more)

Some intelligent plot moves and on the whole the premise feels relatively original

Keeps you watching.

Feels a little too moralistic and utopian-wannabe in parts. (2 more)

Some plot holes, especially around the romance angle

Probably need a new spaceship designer!

Interesting premise, but cheesy in places

Amy Adams

The Disturbing Side of The Mind's Eye

When this movie was released, critics were falling over themselves to praise it and while I did enjoy certain aspects of the movie, as a whole I feel that it is quite overrated. The movie is split into two sections, the real world and the fictional world that takes place within the book that Gyllenhaal's character is writing. The story that takes place within the book is gripping and exciting, but the artsy real world setting annoyed me everytime that they cut back to it, I also found Amy Adams to be quite wooden in this performance. The stand out in the movie is definitely Michael Shannon and he steals every single scene that he is in.
