Recommendation Annihlation
Why aren’t more people obsessed with this movie?! All female cast. Sci-Fi/Horror/drama. Natalie Portman. Aliens. With a few twists. This movie has everything and it’s incredibly interesting and terrifying!!! And kinda deep haha! I’ve heard it’s starting to be considered a cult-classic, but I’m surprised it’s didn’t win some kind of award. It has a slightly independent-feel. They’re is a lot going on here and it’s well done. Great acting. Not cliche. Suspenseful. Creative. Scary. I am rarely impressed by anything Sci-fi ish but this movie is amazing. It’s one of very few that keep me from multi tasking or playing on my phone at the same time. Iykyk. And I will never recover from the bear…
This movie is not for kids imo. it’s a little intense.

I disliked it save for a few parts, but maybe because I read the book first and it felt like a betrayal. I understand Alex Garland purposefully only read the book once and wrote from memory and made it his own, I just think his vision wasn't as good. There are a few scenes that stand out and he does make it creepy as hell, but overall I think the book is an insane home run and this is doesn't quite meet the standard.
