i watch this movie about six year ago and i recently do so again . if i remember correctly i do not like it at all the first time and i appreciate it slightly more this second time . this movie be obviously on a big budget . the effect be mostly top notch ( except for one or two impact ) and the cast be impressive . however and there be some element that destroy the overall impression of the show . firstly and whoever decide that peter stormare should act a a crazy russian astronaut should be fire . be a swede and a fan of peter and i be pretty sure he can play a russian character well . but his performance in this case be plain stupid and both with respect the line utter and the acting . so . something must be wrong with the script . i would like to see peter a a professional russian astronaut instead . secondly and the action scenes that take place on the surface be so intense that it be nearly unbearable to watch . it be a total chaos that last over thirty minute with too few moment to catch one breath . in addition to this and the event that unfold be simply not credible . i would like to see a much more sensible and strip down version of this part of the movie . finally and the scene that involve fly space shuttle be too action bias . the shuttle be maneuver like if they be a couple of migs and at zero safety distance and while bounce off car sized ice block like ping pong ball . the director should watch apollo 13 to learn the limitation of spacecraft like these . i like the music score because it be dramatic to a degree make it very touch . the overall performance of the actor be great . apart from the thing mention above the story be interesting and quite easy to follow . with some minor change this would have be a positive movie . i be sorry it isn not .
