Passengers (2008)

Also Known As: -
Year of first release: 2008
Director: Rodrigo García
Actors: Anne Hathaway (The Dark Knight Rises, Interstellar), Patrick Wilson (Watchmen), David Morse (Contact, 12 Monkeys)
Country: USA
Genre: Thriller, Romance
Conditions of visioning: 16.11.2014, SD VOD, Home cinema
Synopsis: The young psychologist Claire (Hathaway) is given the task of caring for a group of plane crash survivors. She will get more and more attracted by one of them (Wilson), particularly ecstatic about the whole experience.
Review:  The topic seemed interesting. The lovely Anne Hathaway plays very well a fragile woman unsure of herself, and the contrast with the character played by Patrick Wilson works well. The slow development is intriguing enough to keep the viewer interested in spite of the predictable romance, but when you start to understand where it is going and when you see the ending you wonder: all this just for that?!?
This movie only reminds me that I want to watch Flight with Denzel Washington, but I will otherwise quickly forget it.
Rating: 3 /10
