What people are saying
Updated nightlyThis one's getting panned, with most calling it a generic and frustrating thriller. People felt the story of astrophysicists Daniel and Michelle on the run was thin and poorly executed, with Constance Wu, Mark O'Brien, and William Fichtner all getting singled out for performances that didn't land. For a movie about a cosmic discovery, the reaction is pretty earthbound.
