Silver Screen in 2017 {Life}


Apparently their is a new Aliens film on the way but in the meantime it's up to LIFE to give us our fix of sci-fi horror.

A tense and crazy thrill ride of a sci-fi thriller, Life is exceptional with a great cast and claustrophobic setting if ever I have seen one.



Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson and Ryan Reynolds lead this terrific tense film.

Staying under the two mark and mostly set in space on an international space station the crew find "something" or "Calvin" (not Harris) from Mars.

The movie builds slowly but reaches a point where the tension consistently builds and builds!

It's a fun thrill ride which takes the viewer along with them, through the terror that unfolds on the space station circling Earth, is there something else out there? If so, what? It's X-Files type shit all over again!

I liked this film a lot, it's fun, it's well paced and Jake Gyllenhaal can really just do no wrong. The film opens today and it's one for the list ahead of all the shitty April/Easter School Holidays films. Smurfs anyone? Fuck No is my direct answer.

Life, it's great and the film is not too bad either, 4 space bound Stars.
