I watched this movie and then read the reviews on here.
Really puzzled me that people did not understand the plot or the premise of the film. It was fairly basic and easy to follow. It wasn't the greatest space disaster movie I've ever watched but it was watchable. Most of the characters were relatable and I warmed to them, particularly Chris O'Dowd who had some of the best dialogue - Best line of the film as O'Dowds' recently severed arm writes a message to the crew about cutting open a recently deceased crew member "what are you talking about arm?" - literally laughed out loud at this.
If people couldn't understand that strange things were going on due to the crew finding themselves in an alternative universe whilst trying to figure out a way to fix things and get home then I'm afraid it's more to do with the general malaise that is endemic in today's population and not flaws in the screenplay.
