Yes, this film was visually impressive. That's the only good thing I can say about it. The story line was implausible to say the least, the dialogue hokey, the situations increasingly ridiculous, the "heartwrencher" subplot just tiresome, and the outcome impossible. Too bad, could have been a great story, but Hollywood, like an obnoxious drunk, just doesn't know when to stop piling on the action and the schmaltz. I am willing to suspend disbelief, but let's face it, in real life this movies would have ended in about two minutes. So many things were wrong with this film it's hard to know where to start.
SPOILER ALERTS HERE: You do not survive being repeatedly bounced off hard objects in space while wearing a space suit. You do not tell endless, stupid anecdotes while doing a space walk. You do not survive for long periods without oxygen. You do not ignore a fire, even a small one, on a space station. You do not (twice) survive going through a huge field of space debris travelling at thousands of miles an hour. You do not survive a random re-entry. Etc. etc. etc.
A waste of time and money.
