Passengers [4K UHD]

ACT I: The film takes place on a computer-operated spaceship bound to a planet in another galaxy believed suitable for colonization by the humans it is carrying. This was the second such mission, the first having been a huge success for its corporate backers, both historically and financially. Almost 3600 souls were on board, maintained in a state of suspended animation for the two centuries or so trip. But early in the voyage’s second century, something causes the suspended animation pod in which our hero laid sleeping to awaken him. So the movie starts with a powerful rendition of the human transition from a state of materially splendored existential ALONENESS, to a state of bottomless existential LONELINESS. His only company is an automated bartender who is perpetually agreeable to a fault. A particular fly in the ointment here is the fact that our fully grown-up hero discovers that the ship has yet another 90+ years to go before it reaches its destination, a length of time that is for-sure longer than even the longest lifetime he can reasonably expect to have left. In other words, he is likely to die alone before the ship can reach its destination, leaving him with not much to look forward to, as a social being, for the remainder of his years. ACT II: The movie then shifts into high gear when the man discovers both instructions on how to rejuvenate a pod, as well as a pod containing a beautiful young woman of the right age for him. He is immediately confronted with a most painful ethical dilemma, as he sees in her an ideal companion for the lonely and otherwise meaning life ahead of him. But to rejuvenate her pod would be to condemn her to the same fate as he finds himself trapped in—namely, a life likely to end considerably before the ship reaches its destination and all the other souls in suspended animation are reawakened. He tries hard to forestall his desperate longing for her, but eventually can no longer resist. While she is initially ignorant of how her pod had malfunctioned and reawaken her, the relationship between them grows (along with support for their dev eloping fondness for each other from the automated bartender), all the way to the point where the hero finds a ring and has decided to ask the heroine to marry him. However, just as this is about to happen, in a moment when the hero is called away by some mechanical problem with the ship, the automated bartender lets the cat out of the bag. When the hero reappears, the heroine explodes with rage at what he has done to her—selfishly condemning her to a fate similar to his—for which she has come to despise him and wants nothing more to do with him. The problem is that they lack access to any process that can reverse termination of the suspended animation. Both his sense of shameful guilt as well as the heroine’s spite and hostility for the hero rise to violent proportions, to where he begins to contemplate drastically self-injurious means of atonement. ACT III: At this point, a third suspended animation pod somehow opens independently, and a fourth character enters the scene. In full uniform, an extremely brusque and gruff, “strictly by the book,” “of few words,” and “take charge” stock character, who holds the Navy rank of “Chief” (he constantly refers to the ship as “my” ship), emerges; wrapped around his wrist, he has credentials that allow him access to many of the ship’s otherwise inaccessible processes. He is soon advised of how the hero caused the heroine to come out of suspended animation, but he is at a loss as to why he and the hero have come out of it. What our characters soon discover, however, is that the ship is beginning to sink into a level of mechanical dysfunction that will eventually cause it to disintegrate. Apparently some meteors had passed the ship’s shield and severely damaged the ship’s auto-control mechanisms. Attempted repairs cost the Chief his life, without his having succeeded in making everything O.K. In fear and grief, the remaining couple struggle to survive. They have the Chief’s credentials, which allows them to activate the pods, but they soon find out that only one person can be returned to suspended animation (one must stay behind to activate the controls). The remaining one is left to risk life and limb in an attempt to make the final repairs. Our hero apologizes to the heroine, and he insists (given all that he is guilty of having done to her) that he be the one to stay behind. ACT IV: At this point, I leave it to you to see the film for yourself. So far, I feel no “spoiler alert” guilt because there is nothing up to this point in the story that an experienced sci fi movie goer might not have anticipated to come next. But from here, the denouement proves very interesting and satisfying. I think of the ancients, sitting by the campfire or in their worship huts, listening to expertly told mythopoetic tales about life and the meaning of the stars; this movie is something of such an experiences for us living in the new millennium, with basic issues of human existence surfacing in white-hot adventure mode—the special effects are very good! So I think that I’ll just leave you to experience the end for yourselves. What you already know of the movie will surely not turn you off to any surprise it might still hold for you, for the journey more than the destination is the point here. Not a whole lot of would-be mythopoetic works of art these days can claim to achieve anything like that. I have long been a student of antiquity and a psychotherapist, so I fancy myself having developed some sort of “feel” for this kind of thing. Clearly, for this movie, it is the melody and not the words that will stick with you, particularly if life, death, and what to do with the time left to each one of us mortals is at all a currently abiding issue for you. Unequivocally, I can say that this film leaves many space thrills & adventure movies in the dust, providing the most common of persons something genuinely marvelous to ponder upon (at least until one breaks the spell by getting off the couch or out of bed to go to the refrigerator to get another cold beer or soda). All I can say to conclude is to thank very much all the makers of this not particularly universally heralded/yet spot-on film for their highly commendable and very well balanced—although understandably quite scientifically fanciful (but which does not violate the bounds of credible science FICTION)—efforts.

It's about time to movie is produced without terrible language nasty verbal language this one is created for kids to watch that's why it's great Hollywood needs to produce more like this

The idea you can be put into some sort of suspended chamber and wake up years later, cute but unrealistic. Brains cannot function without oxygen. Blood needs to circulate to keep organs alive. Humans are organic creatures. They cannot turn off.

It was a good movie, but it would’ve been a great movie if it would’ve started with the storyline being a little bit earlier than where it started and the ending could’ve definitely been different

I think this movie was amazing. I rented it after (not kidding) seeing a lot of youtube shorts about it. To me that was well worth it.Arthur is the top G btw(SPOLIER-ish? I'm not really saying what happened but talking what type of thing happened)The twist of expectation near the end was great. It really was a shocker and a good one at that.The short epilogue scene at the end was nice.10/10 movie would recommend!

The more I learn about space travel The less likely I think it will be that we can get out of our solar system. This movie made me believe.The expressions from the actors faces called me in. It made me a believer.The emotional side of the story is what made me watch it again.

What do you do when you're the only man awake on a ship that won't arrive at its destination for another 90 years? Well, this is a movie that attempts to answer that question. I enjoyed all of the performances, the spaceship was visually impressive and believable, even the music was quite memorable and suited the movie well. The final touch which really makes the movie is the android bartender, Arthur. This movie says a lot about relationships and it does it with emotional impact and style. I just wish we knew more about what happened during the rest of their trip. The ending felt a little abrupt.

fantascienza e romanticoLa cosa incredibile è come il film sia risultato piacevole con la presenza di soli due attori per quasi tutta la durata.Attori principali sono Jennifer Lawrence e Chris Pratt.Il film è ambientato nel futuro.L'enorme astronave Avalon, lunga più di un chilometro e totalmente automatizzata, sta effettuando un viaggio interstellare di 120 anni dal pianeta Terra alla colonia Homestead II portando a bordo 258 membri dell'equipaggio e 5 000 passeggeri, tutti sottoposti a sonno criogenico. I passeggeri sono coloni che, per vari motivi, hanno deciso di abbandonare la Terra e andare a stabilirsi sul nuovo pianeta, vergine e ricco di risorse.L’impatto con dei meteoriti causa dei malfunzionamenti. Il primo guasto avviene alla capsula criogenica che porta al risveglio, con 90 anni di anticipo rispetto al previsto, di uno dei passeggeri, l'ingegnere meccanico Jim Preston.Comincia il dramma di Jim che dovrà trascorrere il resto della sua vita da solo nell’astronave in quanto si è svegliato 90 anni prima del previsto.L’unico compagno di viaggio è l’androide barista Arthur..Jim cerca delle soluzioni ma non è possibile riattivare la sua capsula. Comincia poi a curiosare sui passeggeri e si innamora di Aurora, una scrittrice giornalista. Ascolta le sue interviste e guarda i suoi video. Passa anche molto tempo vicino alla sua capsula.A un certo punto, dopo un anno di solitudine, comincia a maturare l’idea di svegliarla, facendo passare la cosa come a un guasto.

Proprio quando i due sembravano unirsi sentimentalmente, Aurora scopre che è stato Jim a causarlo. La reazione è rabbiosa…e i due continuano a vivere in modo separato.A un certo punto si verificano altri malfunzionamenti nell’astronave e molte cose cominciano a funzionare a intermittenza.Il capotecnico Gus Mancuso, si risveglia, ma è molto malato. Da quel momento la situazione diventa drammatica. Se non si risolve il problema l’astronave andrà in pezzi…Non vado oltre nella spiegazione ma il film è molto bello

Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt draw you into their struggles with such humour and warmth. The 3D effect was so nicely done and not gimmicky as some 3D movies are. The storyline never drags, and you feel the hopelessness and anger of what they go through. Two thumbs up!

But then the mega spacecraft, designed like a DNA helical corkscrew and spinning doggedly through the cosmos, runs into a meteor shower and takes a huge whack, sending a shockwave through the ship and accidentally opens one of the suspended animation hibernation chamber and that one is of course Jim Preston’s one, which in turn triggers so many other events, and especially the auto-support systems throughout the whole craft, where upon finds Jim Preston starts to wander around this vast empty mega spacecraft, and totally wide-eyed and of course then starts to panic, as he starts realise he has 90 more years to go, especially as he has no access to any kind of relevant information on what the procedure should be.On the other hand and most unsettlingly of all is the regulation sci-fi robot: an android bartender called Arthur, played by the brilliant actor Michael Sheen. Stricken with desolate loneliness, Jim mopes among the other pods and falls in love with one sleeping beauty of a fellow passenger, the journalist Aurora Lane, played by Jennifer Lawrence. In trying to find out more about the other fellow passenger Aurora Lane, Jim Preston plays her autobiography video blog archive on the mega spacecraft’s computer database. Could Aurora Lane be his help mate in his anguish? Does Jim Preston have the right to condemn her to his own terrible fate?With the Sci-Fi film ‘PASSENGERS’ borrows liberally from Stanley Kubrick, with a little of Douglas Trumbull’s Sci-Fi film ‘Silent Running’ where Arthur the bartender seems to be based from the same type of creepy character as in the film ‘The Shining,’ although Arthur is given, like the rest of the film, something of a Hyde-into-Jekyll transformation. Director Morten Tyldum and Screenwriter Jon Spaihts shares Stanley Kubrick’s love of exploring great big creepy empty interiors to keep you guessing what might happen next.There are a handful of really interesting scenes, including some heart stopping zero gravity hijinks in the spaceship’s luxury swimming pool. But for the most part the Sci-Fi film ‘PASSENGERS’ divides so many opinions, it is up to you to decide whether you are for or against this blockbuster Sci-Fi film. Given the imaginative setup and the material’s provocative questions about mortality, not to mention the future of humankind, this Sci-Fi film’s neat lesson is about the nature of happiness and a life we might have liked to have lived. But along the way, Jim Preston and Aurora Lane are forced to unravel the mystery behind the malfunction of the spaceship as it teeters on the brink of collapse, with the lives of thousands of passengers in jeopardy.

Objects, human beings and even celestial galaxies are crystal clear. Everything from stubbles, pores and follicles to textures in surroundings, clothing, etc. are brilliantly on display for all to behold and bask in their glory. Because of the vast, bleak cruise ship so to speak on display here this one begs to be taken seriously in the three-dimensional pop category. The 3D presentation makes the ship look like it goes on forever with extra depth to hallways, objects, etc., to give the Starship Avalon a grand depth of field like the limitless of space itself. The black levels are gorgeously deep, inky and natural throughout. Also where the 3D comes into itself and really excels are with the colours and the endless depth of field, which are bold, bright and beautiful and nothing ever looks too artificial. The skin tones are all very natural and authentic. So all in all throughout the Sci-Fi film, nothing will really distract you from the sheer enjoyment of the endless beauty as you watch the whole of this amazing and awesome ‘PASSENGERS’ the 3D film.3D Blu-ray Audio Quality – Sony Pictures Home Entertainment brings you this ultimate presentation of a truly brilliant and dynamic 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio experience. From the film music score, atmospheric effects and the rumble of the Starship Avalon hurtling through space to the directionality and rendering of environments the dynamics are all over the place where nothing ever gets lost in the hustle and bustle of everything and that includes the dialogue. It feels like you are actually there on this space cruise ship enjoying the serenity of it all one quiet moment and diffusing fires the very next. From atmospheric effects, score and ambiance to meteors slamming by, flames swirling around and intense moments of peril the rear speakers are constantly being engaged. Yes there at times a lot of slow moments throughout the film, but I can assure you and to also remind you that the rear speakers never stop working as they engulf you in the middle of the sci-fi atmosphere that is why I love so very much about this amazing and awesome ‘PASSENGERS’ the 3D film.2D Blu-ray Special Features and Extras:Special Feature: Deleted Scenes [2017] [1080p] [2.39:1] [9:49] Here we get to view the following 8 deleted scenes, which are as follows: N0 NEW DRINKS; MEMORY MAKER; TACOS AND COCKTAILS; KISS IN THE PHOTOBOOTH; AURORA FINDS JIM’S PHOTOS; DRUNK DIAL; GUS REVEALS HIS PAST and GUS LOOKS FOR A SOLUTION.

I loved seeing the green tights Michael Sheen wears as Arthur the android bartender. It is also interesting to figure out that the character of Gus who we are informed he is probably 500-600 years old. We also get clips from the film and rare behond-the-scene filming.

Jennifer Lawrence says he is the hardest working person she has ever met in her life. However, for the most part you will notice Chris Pratt positive attitude with everyone he interacts with. Jennifer Lawrence also comments that Chris Pratt is by far a better dancer than her, and even better at basketball. Different cast and crew make comments on the set during the setting up the various scenes before shooting, additional cast and crew talk up the qualities and characteristics Chris Pratt who brought to the set.

There is a lot of good material here and a lot of fun to go with it on their journey through space. The Norwegian-born director, Morten Tyldum, does his best with the limited material he is given to make the best out of this Sci-Fi film. Morten Tyldum does some real elegant work, which feels especially good given with all the clutter in most of today’s CGI-packed Sci-Fi film adventures. Also the ubiquitous little robot vacuum cleaners are a nice metaphor for how the Sci-Fi film is composed and shot. The screenwriter Jon Spaihts, has a talent for knowing when to put the little picture ahead of the big one, so no matter how unlikely the circumstances, the psychology feels true. The journalist Aurora Lane, played by Jennifer Lawrence, and after interviewing the only human within gazillion miles, begins to explore her own feelings (in voice-over mode). Why did she feel she needed to leave Earth to find herself? Something of the Sci-fi film’s true spirit can be detected in the face of Michael Sheen’s bartending android, Arthur, where just below the smiling surface he is totally ironic, mischievous, dirty-minded and alternately stabilizing and destabilizing as the plot demands throughout the Sci-Fi film. Arthur is like the spirit of the corporation that sees all we do and will ultimately control our destiny. Only a corporate entity could deliver an ending like this one. But only humans could devise and enact the often delightful scenario that precedes it. The entire last act has one or two nice moments, especially where another star actor makes an appearance, but it marks the return or perhaps the revenge of formula storytelling. But be warned when you are about to hear the final voice-over, you might want to close your eyes and plug your ears! Unfortunately, the dialogue slightly fails miserably; the lovable characters could have been given smarter lines, but instead, we’re stuck with obvious observations like, “Oh no, I woke up too soon!” Yeah, we know. ‘PASSENGERS’ is Hollywood’s answer to the star-studded Bollywood blockbusters of the 1970s, where anything and everything could happen because it was happening to big stars on screen. Here too, it’s mostly only Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence who manage to keep you in your seat. It is a massive awesome great-looking Sci-Fi film with a very original idea. Watch it for its stars but it won’t sadly a lot of critics have pointed out that it does not have the astronomical impact on you, still never mind, I still found it very enjoyable and entertaining.
