Title: Pathetic, Uninvolving, New Age Mess
Review: Silly, self-important nonsense masquerading as deep profound Science Fiction. Jodie Foster plays an utterly humorless and emotionally icebound BUT totally brilliant young woman (a type of role she is becoming tiresomely expert at) who is supposed to be carrying a torch for the appallingly inept Matthew McConaughey. The lack of chemistry between them makes a significant part of the story rather hard to swallow. Namely, one can't believe that Foster's walking iceberg has any interest at all in the McConaughey's inane all-purpose guru.This movie is to serious science fiction what a Hallmark card is to Shakespeare. Slight, admittedly rather efficient, but ultimately forgettable.
