We all love a great love story. Over the years, Hollywood has managed to come up some really great love sagas. Remember A Walk In The CloudsIJ You’ve Got MailIJ And more recent one’s like The Danish GirlIJ It is another matter that this movie had a different meaning of love but it was a love story nonetheless.
When one gets a chance to see a movie that is all about love, one would jump to it. More so, since there are no great Hindi movies releasing this week that would make one want to queue up for it.
So, what can go wrong when one falls in love in a spaceship which offers some of the best views that have ever been shown in a movieIJ Apparently a lot. Since our heroine is not too happy that she was woken up from her beauty sleep 88 years too soon! It is not surprising that one finds empathy with dialogues like — ‘He stole my life... it amounts to murder’. Also, the fact that they are the only two humans awake in a spaceship which has over 5,000 passengers including the crew and another 88 years to go before they reach their destination. There is a kind of sadness to their plight.
But then that is what a love story should be able to do. CorrectIJ Of course, one should not forget the main ingredient of a true love story — a happy ending. Does this one end on a happy noteIJ
