I think No redeeming qualities best sums up how I feel about this movie. I guess Adam Driver was as good as expected, and the little girl was just fine. But the story… What a pile of excrement.
Science
It would be easier to list the few things this movie gets right about science than how many things they got wrong. Everything from astronomy to biology to animal behavior. They didn’t have a clue.
Story
As bad as the science is in this movie, the writing is even worse. I can’t believe they spilled the beans of the plot twist when I saw the first movie trailer. My only thought was, “Well this could have been really shocking to find out if they didn’t spill it right off the bat. And just in case you managed to miss all the movie trailers and still chose to see this movie then they spoil the only cool thing in the first one minute.

Spoilers galore below
Here are some of the scientific errors I noticed.
Predators don’t attack animals that are bigger than themselves unless they attack in packs. Also, predators are actually extremely cautious in attacking anything. Even a slightly wounded predator may starve to death before it can heal.
Asteroids don’t come in swarms like that. If there were a large asteroid, like the one that wiped out the dinosaurs, that was surrounded by a bunch of smaller asteroids then over the span of billions of years the small ones will all merge with the larger one due to gravity.
Asteroid belts have a lot of asteroids, but even more space. It takes spacecraft months to travel from one asteroid to the next. They don’t come in dense storms. The rings of Saturn aren’t as dense as the asteroid belt in this movie.
Grade: D-
About The Peetimes: Even though this is a short movie I found 2 good Peetimes, and one emergency option for you. I would recommend the second Peetime over the others.
There are extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of 65.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
