Brilliant and touching
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
View MoreClose shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
View MoreThis film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
View MoreI was a part of getting this film made and unlike some artists I can be honest about my own art. This is a B-Movie, but as B Movies go it is top notch. B-Movies get there name for many reasons, in our case, we were "B" for broke. We had almost no budget at all. Yet talented people banded together and did what they could with next to nothing but love for a cool little story. I don't often get excited reading screenplays by people who have never made a film before, but this screenplay got me to call a bunch of talented friends together to work for next to nothing and take a shot on something that had no shot to begin with. Only a good story can do that to people. This movie deserves to be seen because people gave their all when they had nothing to gain to get this on the screen. If we would have had millions it would Star an A-lister or two and the VFX would be flawless. So, I say to you movie lovers, lovers of science fiction. Watch this film knowing thousands were spent and lives were put on hold to tell this story on the screen. Grade this film knowing it's incredibly low budget and you too may give this film a ten. I made it, so I know EXACTLY where and when we could have done better, and I fairly give it a six. Those of you with your noses in the air, and your proud middle fingers number "1 Star" ratings. I would like you to put your life on hold, Star by writing a screenplay, then raise barely enough money to pay anyone a minimum wage, find a place to shoot, and cameras lights and equipment and do better then 5th Passenger before you take yourself seriously as a film "critic." We did Ok, and the film is worth watching if you truly like movies. If you only enjoy 40-200 million dollar blockbusters, then this isn't for you. Everyone else, enjoy the ride, it's a little cramped, and tight in here, this spaceship has one too many passengers aboard. Which one deserves to go? Enjoy your popcorn and enjoy a movie made by people who truly LOVE movies. We know, we're trying to make magic daily, not crush it beneath our egotistical toes.
View More5th passenger is a great indie sci-fi movie filled with fan faves. This is not a big budget Hollywood blockbuster, it is an indie sci film made by people who care about and love what they do. Overall, very enjoyable
View MoreThis film is so spectacularly bad, everything about it is appalling - the script, the acting, the special effects, the story - crap, crap, crap, crap. The only redeeming feature is that its not longer, don't waste your time watching the rubbish.
View MoreThe storyline was intriguing and the plot kept moving along and kept my interest. I like to watch indie films because the story has to rely more on character and that's what this one did. I though the SFX were fine for a low-budget sci-fi. Worth a watch if you also like those types of movies.I didn't go into this expecting Marvel quality so I wasn't disappointed. Maybe that's what others were expecting and why they rated it low? I don't know.
