Voyagers (2021)

Trivia
The movie is considered to be a futuristic version of the 1954 William Golding novel Lord of the Flies (1990).

Goofs
The outer airlock hatch is left open for two minutes and twenty seconds, minimum, after the antagonist explosively opens the inner airlock hatch. The air rushes past the individuals in the lock at a high rate of speed, rapidly depressurizing the ship (as evidence by ship warnings declaring emergency oxygen is being released into the ship). This goes on and on, while the heroes spend a lot of time struggling with Zac. In reality, the wind would die down quickly, and a good portion of the ship would be in a severely depressurized atmosphere in a very short time, causing almost immediate loss of consciousness for anyone not holding their breath (which Zac clearly was not doing, as he can be heard grunting and gasping for breath while struggling).

Quotes
Richard: I want to be honest with them about everything. Otherwise, they'll lose faith in me.

Lord of The Flies in space, done in a boring way.

A group of youngsters are sent into deep space, in order to search for a new home, and build a better world, things however don't go according to plan.

The combination of Colin Farrell, sci fi story, and evident budget gave me real hopes that this was going to be a cracking film....

...Sadly it wasn't, it was quite unimaginative, and despite looking great, it was actually hard to stay concentrated on it, because it was sadly, just dull.

A very interesting first 10 minutes or so, then it descends into sci fi opera, a Lord of The Flies story which sadly lacked any real sense of appeal.

Farrell was good, but should have had a much bigger part, the interest went along with his character.

Hoped for a lot, was ultimately disappointed, 5/10.
