Cargo - 2009 - 5/10
[Image: 258ry1w.jpg]
Space SciFi from the Swiss.
The exhausted planet Earth has been mostly abandoned.
Folks are saving coins and heading for Rhea, a great new world.
Travel takes eight years in massive cryogenic / cargo ships.
After three years, our heroine is roused to be bulky suited, glorified patrol guard, prowling the vast emptiness of dim corridors.
Why? There is a stowaway loose, endangering lives and the ship.
Gradually, darker discoveries emerge.
Several CGI shots, luckily kept to a minimum. Unoriginal plot. Decent, post industrial “wet” sets (just curious, why doesn’t leaking water freeze in space? heating a massive vessel so that water puddles about strikes me as a colossal waste of energy. sorry).
Not a bad film, but not a good one, either. Predictable, derivative.
