Life(2017) : A Must Watch Movie Of Space Exploration Genre.

I am specially a movie lover. I watch a lot of movies based on true life events and scientific facts also. When I watch movie, it gives me enough pleasure and incessant learning experiences are also a by product of watching films of education and entertainment genre.

Some movies reflect the lifestyles of people all around the globe, culture,
social traits,norms & living conditions.
Hollywood movies do have a wide variety and versatile film genre.

Today, I will go through a movie which is cap a pie different from those movie that we see most often.Its a movie that translocates beyond the earths atmosphere.

America & Russia are always in competition with each other in respect of surpassing each other in Space Exploration. Billions of dollars are being invested to pursue extra terrestrial research and space adventure project.

My working experience in this case is that all the scientific inventions and modern technological innovations are driven by previously made science fictions and creative writing and research works.

As the NASA and European Space Agency and all the national space admin committee and organisations are frequently doing space projects, Hollywood movies are not gonna stay back in the race. They are also producing scientific movies and space related movies to feed the hungry minds of tech lover audience all around the globe.

As I said, Life (2017) is an American science fiction horror film, directed by incredibly talented Daniel Espinose, written by Rhett Reese &Paul Wernick.

This movie has many protagonists, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson & Ryan Reynolds in the lead roles all at once together...

The cover photo already demonstrated that this is a movie based on space adventure, and I say, your concept and notion is accurate. Yes, exactly, this is a a movie of suspension and intense, some horrific and troublesome scene that will surely move you and make your mind very curious.

Now, lets come to the basic concrete story of this film.
This movie follows a six member crew from International Space Station (ISS), Uncovers the first extra -terrestrial evidence, a strange object collected from space observatory center,found from Mars.
The crew members riding in the unmanned Pilgrim 7 space probe returns from Mars to earths orbit with soil samples potentially containing evidence of extra terrestrial life.
The probe is intercepted by ISS, where six members crew retrieves its sample.

One of the crew members, Exobiologist Hugh Denry revives a dormant cell from the sample, which then in a blink of an eye, transforms its colour & shape. The object was named as "Calvin ".
The movie revolves around the concussing concept & weired behaviour of this foreign cell which generally can change its specialization, acting as muscle, neuron & photosensory cells all at once.

From a certain phase of the movie, everything was ok and sound.But, the catastrophic consequences began to happen, when Derry (the exobiologist) carried forward his researches on Calvin, it crushed his head and knocked him unconscious, Calvin somehow escapes its enclosure and it devoured a lab rat, then it began to grow in size.

Subsequently, Engineer Rory Adams, rescued Derry, gets quarantined in the lab when he was attacked by Calvin.

You may have already knew that, there are certain protocols and minutes signed and registered by the space organisations that, If anyone of the crew members of the aerospace rocket get severely injured or fall prey to any victim, then dont try to rescue him by exposing other crew members in life threats or other risks.
{Which is why Rory was quarantined }.

I was left silent and speechless to see that movie. This movie has just 106 minutes of running time though I never looked on the time bar, I watched that all the while.

Scientific movie like this showcased what might happen if exaggerated experiments are conducted in the space centers and the potential harm that might cause to all the species of Mother Earth.
Although its an imaginary movie that highlighted some of the harmful aspects of extraterrestrial life and the adversities faced by them.

There are a lot of aspects here caught my attention, was the unique way of presentation and, fast and breathtaking storyline, light exposure etc.
In the end, All the six members died because of the onslaught attack of this object, this object got so much strength and transforming ability that the spacecrafts all security system, including the fire retardant insulating foam and bio bubble technique collapsed, and they had to lay down theor lives to that.
Ultimately, the final crew member somehow been able to rescue and retrieved back to earth with that object and the movie finished there....

I would give 8.5/10 to this film in the scientific &space movie genre.
Its an artistic flm with a great acting skills of the casts, magnificent directorial and film making ability, overall a praiseworthy movie to watch....

I suggest you to watch this movie.. You will find this movie interesting and informative also. A great knowledge
about space events &astronauts life can be learmt watching the film...
