Cheap, lousy sci-fi drama fare filmed in a studio during COVID-19 by the looks of it. Stephen Moyer is old and tired and plays an intergalactic pilot negotiating with an alien race. Lots of tired, low rent mayhem and a cameoing John Rhys-Davis wishing he was somewhere else. Not great!

The Earth has a global freeze. A wormhole device appears in orbit that will transport ships to a habitable planet called Rhea. Over time the folks who live there don't want anymore refugees and blame them for everything that goes wrong. Bran (Stephen Moyer) who we get to know through flashbacks is attempting to make it to Rhea. Circumstances place him on a Rhean cargo ship with a dead crew and Ohsha (Tala Gouveia ) the lone survivor trying to kill him.

The story's theme is the US immigration policy and how they are demonized by our current government. The theme didn't hit a home run in how it was presented in a film with just two main characters on a ship for 90 minutes. High boredom factor. Joystick scene could have been cut. I liked the AI. Interesting ending. Too bad the rest of the feature lacked creativity.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity

I didn't have any expectations for this film & watched it with an opened mind.

This is a surprising gem with a few characters that have genuine chemistry & the banter between them just seem so natural between Bran (Stephen Moyer) & Ohsha (Taka Gouveia) & A.I Edison (Mike Beckingham). The flashback scenes bring great gravitas to Bran's character which the writers and director have expectly managed to capture in an organic way. His daughter Riley (Emily Haigh) has a short role but made the most of her limited time.

This is a sci-fi film that borrows from the genre where humanity must leave earth to find another planet on which to live. However, things go awry & they are lost in space until Bran finds & boards a big space ship. It is definitely worth a watch!
