As Earth wars, space watches

 

I.S.S (2023)

Directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite this film stars Ariana DeBose, Chris Messina, John Gallagher Jr., Masha Mashkova, Costa Ronin and Pilous Asbaek. As nuclear war breaks out on Earth astronauts on the international space station divide into factions.

I love the set up for this film, the script just never delivers on the potential here. The characters are a bit too thin and the plot goes straight to the action rather than letting the tension simmer. Fine for what it is, could have been so much more, give me the Alistair MacLean version of this film.

3/5
