Saw it. Rich guys are scum. Poor guys are saints. Typical liberal crap. Apart from that not a bad movie. Not a good movie, either. I’d give it three out of five stars. IMHO, there is no way it deserves a 92% rating, which it was getting on Rotten Tomatoes when I looked last night.

That’s exactly what we said last night when we saw it. There’s something fishy with rotten tomato and the other ratings for it. Someone got paid. It wasn’t an awful movie. I’d give it 3 stars in 5, but it sure wasn’t anywhere near 92%. We called BS.

The high Tomatometer rating is predictable

The Occupy Wall Street in Space, 99% vs The 1% theme probably helps with the critics.

The fanboys who love the book will rate this thing at Five Stars just to promote the franchise.

Nobody else knows this movie exists.

Agree, the classism “keep your place” was gratuitous.
If they’d had just the first Tilda Swinton speech and skipped the other “keep your place” lectures and the kid saying “all back passengers are scum” in the classroom out, it would have been better.
The kronole and its role was actually interesting, as was “how do you live in an enclosed system” like that.
