Low IMDB Reviewers Did Not Get It Plainly clear they all were looking for Star Wars when instead they got a "family" drama.
I say family in such a way as this is not about a regular family. No, it is more like the wild west where one group takes over another groups home by killing them. Issue here, as in most stories if this type, they left a survivor. 20+ years later... they come back.
I honestly watched this for Jonny Lee Miller and was disappointed he was not in it all that much.
Instead we get the tale of Jerry, Ilsa, and Remmy; a truly mixed family if ever there was one! As the years go by on Mars (tho it really never says they are on Mars you have to assume), soon it is just Jerry and Remmy.
Jerry is the survivor of the first group. In the ensuing years Remmy abides with him (she is a child). When she is "of age", Jerry believes they should mate and have children. Ya know, cause otherwise the species will die out!
Remmy has a long memory. She never forgot what Jerry did and has barely said a word to him though he has been a father figure and "good" to her for a decade or more. Nonetheless, to her, and to me, he has always been an invader and someone not to be 100% trusted.
In the end Remmy goes off, breather and air tanks, to a place she knows separates her habitat from the wilds. She wants to know truly if she is the only person there. As she puts on her mask and ventures out, we the audience are left to wonder; tho are fairly certain with seemingly no way back "home"... she is doomed.
But we do not know as the movie abruptly ends!! I'd like to think she realized nothing is there, turned around, opened the passage, and went to her habitat where, while alone, at least she could live out her days with food and water; rather than running out of air and dying miserably in the dust.
But... we do not know.
Everyone cast was wonderful but special kudos go to Brooklyn Prince, who plays Remmy as a child, and Nell Tiger Free who plays the older Remmy. Their performances segue perfectly into each other making the character believably one.
Recommended but not for those looking for star-ships, lasers, big aliens, and light sabers!!
