Passengers

A spacecraft carrying thousands of people to a distant colony has a malfunction in one of its hibernation pods. A passenger, Jim Preston, wakes up 90 years too early and faces a lonely existence. Faced with the prospect of dying alone, he makes the fateful decision to wake up another passenger, Aurora Lane, without her consent, leading to a complex relationship and a fight for survival as they discover a critical malfunction threatening the entire ship.

Passengers received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for its visual effects, production design, and the chemistry between its leads, Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt. However, many critics found the premise flawed and ethically questionable, arguing that the film squandered its potential by focusing on a romantic subplot rather than exploring the darker implications of the characters' choices. Audience reception was generally more favorable than critical, appreciating the sci-fi spectacle and romantic elements.

• Praised for its stunning visual effects and the appealing performances of its lead actors, Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt.

• Criticized for its underdeveloped plot and the ethically dubious premise of waking another passenger without consent.
