   Classic Soderbergh but at his best. Thrilling and stressful. Heavy and compelling and very believable. Not over sciencey but enough to tie together a very realistic feeling and terrifying possibility. Timely and touching.

Superb film.… Expand

I have recommended to friends and family - save your money and wait for the DVD.… Expand
