- Right up the alley of people who love a story set somewhere strange and anyone who likes a world with its own rules. Made for the biggest screen and the loudest speakers you have. Sits nicely alongside Star Trek Beyond.
- The mood
- Exciting.
- The pace
- Wastes no time getting going, at 30 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
