Not only is she absolutely an idiot who says and does the dumbest thing possible at any given moment, she has zero other personality traits to make up for what a terrible character she is. I'm not sure if it's the actress portraying her or the incompetence of the directors, but this girl has one expression and it is "furled brow, shocked Pikachu."
this show could work if maybe the supporting cast was mildly interesting, but none of them has any personality either. They're all just pretty much wooden set dressing with the occasional spoken line or two. Just to remind the audience that they exist.
It's beyond dull, it's entirely uninteresting and is just a nonstop barrage of inept filmmaking wrapped around a wasted premise. Bad editing, bad directing, bad writing. Zero redeeming qualities here.

And it exists mostly in the first 30 minutes--which is an excellent proof of concept for a tight, alien-centric, survival thriller with zero dialogue. But that's about it. The rest of the story goes off the rails in scope and scale and collapses under the weight of its own abject goofiness to the point that you'll probably be laughing more than you're gripping the edge of your seat in fear and suspense.
Other than that, the main character has no discernible skills or abilities that aid in her survival and the entire movie is basically one long rube goldberg machine of contrivances.
All in all, fairly average film that could have been elevated with more restraint and creative storytelling techniques.

This episode was the nail in the coffin. It's been sputtering and flailing this entire season, but this episode was the final, wheezing death rattle in its decade-long race to the absolute bottom of the barrel. A barrel which turned out to be an open grave.
I can't say I'm upset. It was like watching a dear relative slowly waste away from Alzheimer's over a period of many years, forgetting all the little things that made you love them, that endeared them to their many friends and acquaintances -- moving eventually into hospice care as they wither away to nothingness both mentally and physically.
But the pain has now ended, for both of us. May it rest in peace and be recalled fondly by its millions of adoring fans.
You've done so much for so many, for so long. Rest now.
And the rest of you: Live long. And prosper.
