Leave your thoughts about Passengers.
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAn entertaining but somewhat corny sci-fi fantasy romance film with aspirations to be a deep thinking film. |
| Willamette WeekJay HortonPassengers so proudly boasts star power and visual panache that it takes a while to notice the limp romantic subplot that serves as featured in-flight entertainment. |
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonAfter a promising takeoff, this science-fiction romance derails its intriguing futuristic premise about intergalactic travel with an abundance of cheesy melodrama in its second half. |
| EspinofMikel ZorrillaSince it doesn't even get to take advantage of what its two protagonists have to give, ends up being a constant disappointment. [Full review in Spanish] |

| Showbiz JunkiesRebecca MurrayExit the theater with about 10 minutes left to go and you'll have a much more enjoyable time than if you stayed until the very end. |
| SF WeeklyJeffrey EdalatpourThere is no gravity to this interstellar love story, but these two stars have never been more likable. |
