Europa Report

Good movie, Nicely creepy. I'm a big fan of these audiovisual distortion effects. A much better space movie than Gravity IMHO. Even Sandy B couldn't save that one.

Documentary style sci-fi. Loved it, definitely underrated.

It is a good movie, and seems very realistic with a balanced amount of action, horror, and science without much fiction.

How anyone can not like found footage is beyond me.

This little gem about a team that travels to Jupiter's moon Europa to look for signs of life is perfectly paced, well acted and amazingly produced considering its budget.

If you liked Apollo 18 and the stellar Operation Avalanche, you shouldn't pass this one up.

I found the non-linear story-telling to hurt this footage based sci-fi movie. The suspense stretches over the entire movie because you wonder if cliches like EVA accidents or communications failure are going to be different this time. It is not a bad movie if you like the genre but i find the very similar movie Sunshine to do everything a bit better.

It was good but not great. I think I'm burned out on the found footage format. There were times I wished this was in traditional format. While the multiple camera angle format was interesting in some shots, the overall format was, well, annoying.

"Europa Report" is a higher concept Science Fiction film more interested in the wonder of space exploration than exploitation. There's no apocalypse or alien invasions to thwart, no mysterious space virus that turns astronauts into zombies. This is simply about astronauts exploring a planet, make that a moon of Jupiter, in a search for a life form.

The crew itself aren't the most interesting bunch, but they are noble and brave as they sacrifice everything for discovery. There are some tense moments and the ending is very cool, a real exclamation point on the journey, especially if you like your Sci-Fi a little more like "Moon", Kubrick's "2001" or even Hyams's "2010".

The space travel special effects are good enough as they satisfactorily present the sense of wonder so necessary to make the astronauts mission seem massive.

A fascinating science-fiction thriller, Europa Report is a well-crafted found footage film. The plot follows a lost manned mission that was sent to explore an ice field on Jupiter’s fourth largest moon. The story is full of mystery and intrigue, as it starts with the mission being lost and slowly reveals what happened. And, the cast is quite strong; as they give their characters considerable amounts of personality and depth. Europa Report is an entertaining and compelling adventure that does an excellent job at using the found footage genre.
