This film screams to be seen on the big screen (not an option…only on Amazon). The story, the spectacle, even the emotions are larger than can be squeezed on a home TV. Chris Pratt plays a soldier who travels into the future to help fight an alien invasion. The story is full of references to other sci-fi classics and a few confusing plot points, so it’s up to the production to offer new angles. The alien is a cool design, the action scenes are solid and Pratt’s personal charm helps in the dramatic family scenes. Other than that, it has all the required elements for a big screen blockbuster and some of them actually deliver. (3.5 / 5)
