Review of Oxygen

Oxygen (2021)
5/10
Pretty to look at, but nothing interesting being told

Warning: Spoilers
I just got my first vaccination and felt sickly afterwards, so I decided to watch a movie that won't be too demanding for my brain cells. I didn't expect much and that was delivered, great choice on my part.

Besides being visually impressive and containing a great actress the movie won't give you much. It will end and you will raise one of your eyebrows or chuckle a little bit or even feel annoyed afterwards.

Many things were kind of expected in this movie, but I don't blame the authors, I just watched a lot of stuff and you know how it goes.

But now really people have to help me out:

So there is this virus that will kill all humans within 2 generations on earth. And we have a technology to build human clones and put all the original memories inside of them. Why on earth would you need to colonize a new planet then? You could just build a secure place on earth with lots of clones that will wake up after say 50 years of human extinction and live on the amazing planet that is still available, while the virus will be dead since all humans are dead (herd immunity also works when no hosts are alive anymore). Not only is that much easier, but will also have a higher chance of success.

So well, I don't feel much better, but some time has passed.
