Comment
A spaceship is on 120 year voyage to take its passengers to a new colony planet, when one of the passengers is awoken from hibernation with 90 years of the voyage still to go. With no way of going back into hibernation he wakes up an attractive woman. All goes well until she realises what he has done. This is a good mixture of sci-fi, drama and romance which is built around the characters of the two leads. Whilst there are some special effects in space, they do not dominate or detract from the story. It is the performance from Jennifer Lawrence that carries the film.
