It has been noted elsewhere that some reviews reveal some of the plot of this film, if only indirectly. I shall not do that here.
"Passengers" might best be described as a psychological mystery, because much is made of the psychological states of the characters. The main character, Claire (Anne Hathaway), is a counselor who works with people suffering from PTSD. She is assigned a group of plane crash survivors.
Her sessions with the survivors make her more aware of her own life choices. And she feels an air of mystery surrounding the crash itself and how the airline is dealing with the aftermath.
As usual, Anne Hathaway is great in her role. The entire cast is, really. Co-star Patrick Wilson--who I was unfamiliar with--is fun to watch as a quirky crash survivor who challenges Claire, making her examine herself.
It is difficult to tell if some holes in the story are really just red herrings, but either way it is fun to unravel its mystery.
