00:00Welcome back to Movie Recaps. Today I will show you a sci-fi, romance, drama film from 2016, titled Passengers. Spoilers ahead. Watch out and take care.

00:10The interstellar spaceship Avalon can be seen traveling through space, headed to a colonized world called Homestead 2. All of its quarters are empty, the vessel is on autopilot.

00:20The 258 crew members as well as the 5,000 passengers are in hibernation. Suddenly, the ship passes through an asteroid belt, that's weakening its shields.

00:30Power is diverted to the main shield, but the ship is on a collision course with a giant asteroid. Suddenly, the asteroid collides with the ship, causing various malfunctions.

00:39The ship begins self-reparations, but one of the hibernation pods activates. The passenger awakened is Jim Preston, a mechanical engineer.

00:48His pod opens and an automated system helps with his awakening, telling him that he's spent 120 years in suspended animation and that the ship is only four months away from Homestead 2.

00:57He's told that he will be able to spend that time enjoying the luxurious aspects of the ship.

01:02Jim receives instructions about his ID band, his cabin and the primary activities he's to take part off, prior to the arrival on the planet.

01:10Excited and nervous to meet the people on the ship, he gets ready, leaves his cabin and walks into an automated class mat for an entire learning group.

01:18Jim looks a little anxious, as the hologram explains the situation on Earth, calling it overpopulated, overpriced and overrated.

01:25It tells him to hold his questions to the end of the lesson, but Jim keeps asking why he's the only one there.

01:31He realizes that the hologram can't answer him and goes to search for other people.

01:35He gets to the main concourse of the ship. No one is there either, but an automated informational desk offers to help.

01:42Jim asks to talk to a real person and it sends him off to talk to a steward, but when he finds that no one is there too, he asks to speak to the captain.

01:49When he gets to the bridge, even though he doesn't have access to go inside, he can see that none of the main crew is awake either.

01:56Jim eventually goes to the observatory, where he finds out that the ship is actually 90 years away from Homestead 2.

02:02He realizes that he woke up too soon, so he rushes back to the concourse and sends a message back to Earth asking what he should do,

02:09because he doesn't know how to get back into hibernation.

02:11The communications system informs him that the overpriced call to Earth would take approximately 55 years to get an answer back.

02:18Jim is devastated. He walks around and finds the ship's bar, where he sees another person.

02:24As he's talking to the bartender something seems strange about him.

02:27When he goes to get him a drink, Jim realizes that he's an android.

02:31It's called Arthur. Jim wants to find out more information from him,

02:34but he can't even explain to the android how it's possible for him to be there ahead of time.

02:38Jim wakes up in his cabin the next day and goes to the cantina,

02:42where he quickly realizes that most of the things on the menu are reserved for gold-class passengers only.

02:47He gets his plain coffee and tries to figure out how to fix his hibernation chamber.

02:52After he gets all the tools, he manages to get it operating and lies down inside of the pod.

02:57But nothing happens.

02:58Next, he decides to use the tools he found to get into the crew's hibernation chambers.

03:03That doesn't work either.

03:05Small malfunctions happen around the ship.

03:06Jim keeps returning to the bar to drink, but mostly to talk to Arthur.

03:11The android gives him some advice, that convinces him to break into one of the gold-class rooms

03:15and try to have some fun on the ship.

03:18Jim tries all the restaurants, the games, the entertainment system.

03:21But as time passes he becomes even more miserable to be there alone.

03:25One day, he gets drunk and wanders around the hibernation pods,

03:29when he stumbles into an airlock with spacesuits designed for spacewalks.

03:32Jim gets into a suit and goes to the airlock, pushes a lever and then the button to release

03:37the airlock door.

03:38Once outside the ship he's mesmerized by the view.

03:41He's the only conscious human being experiencing that moment in time.

03:45Jim releases the magnets on his boots and floats in space, feeling devastated.

03:50He comes back inside, takes off the suit, but goes back to the airlock without it on.

03:54He pulls the lever, ready to end it all, but changes his mind in the last moment,

03:59runs back inside and slips on a bottle.

04:01Jim stands up and is instantly drawn to a woman in one of the pods, named Aurora.

04:06He searches for her files in the directory and listens to her passenger interview,

04:10becoming enamored with her.

04:12Later it is seen sitting next to her pod, still listening to her interviews.

04:16Back in the bar, he's reading some of her work and is talking to Arthur about her writing.

04:20He becomes obsessed with the irony of his situation, going to another planet for a better life,

04:25waking up early and not getting there, and finding his perfect woman, only for her to

04:29be out of reach.

04:31Jim keeps thinking about her and starts getting the idea to wake her up too.

04:34He talks it over with the android, but he doesn't understand the conundrum.

04:38If he wakes her up for his own benefit, he'd be stranding her there with him, to die on the

04:42ship.

04:43Jim decides against it first, but as time goes by he can't let it go, until one day, he changes

04:48his mind.

04:49He goes to her pod and manages to activate it.

04:52As she's waking up and going through the same process as he did, he hides and goes back

04:56to his room.

04:58A little bit later he goes to the main concourse, hoping to find her.

05:01And there she is, just as confused as he was a year ago.

05:05Jim tells her they're the only ones awake and takes her to the observatory.

05:09Then he tells her that he can't get to neither the crew, nor the main commands of the ship.

05:13Aurora freaks out and wants to get back into her pod.

05:15When they get to it, Jim explains that there is no special equipment on the ship that can

05:20help them get back into hibernation, effectively telling her that they're stranded.

05:24They go back at the concourse and he tells her that she should rest, since she just came

05:28out of hibernation.

05:29She feels sorry for him, having to spend more than a year alone on the ship.

05:33Jim goes back to the bar, feeling regretful about what he did.

05:37He asks Arthur not to tell Aurora that he was the one that woke her up.

05:40The next day, Aurora wakes up.

05:43She goes back to the concourse and asks the automated info desk about the hibernation pods.

05:48Jim joins her there and they go to get breakfast.

05:50As they leave, the info desk has some sort of malfunction.

05:54In the cantina, Aurora realizes that Jim has been eating the same breakfast for more than

05:59a year and gets him one of the gold class menus.

06:01They talk about the possibility to fix the pods, but, unlike Jim, Aurora isn't ready to give

06:07up. She searches through the infirmary, then goes through research documents, eventually

06:11ending up at the crew's hibernation quarters trying to break the doors open.

06:15Jim notices more malfunctions throughout the ship.

06:18Sometime later, Aurora laments about her life on the Avalon.

06:22She writes, jogs around the ship and swims in the pool, becoming more and more aware of

06:26her situation. She goes to the cantina to interview Jim, thinking that his story might

06:31be interesting. She asks why he immigrated to the colony.

06:34Jim answers with slogans from the company first, but then further explains that he hopes

06:39that on the new world he could be somebody, he could build a life.

06:42Later, they end up in the observatory and Aurora finally shares her reason to be there.

06:47Unlike the other passengers on the ship, she has a round-trip ticket.

06:51Her idea was to go to Homestead 2, live there for a year and come back to Earth, to become

06:55the first journalist that has ever done that, writing the greatest story that ever was.

06:59Aurora slowly gives up on finding a way to fix their current predicament and Jim figures

07:03out a way to cheer her up. He takes her dancing, to the cinema, and to the basketball court.

07:09Lastly, he takes her to the bar to meet Arthur. She relaxes for a bit, until she remembers their

07:14situation. Jim is left alone with the android, feeling awful about what he's done to her.

07:19The next moment he's seen tinkering with something and in the other Aurora walks into the observatory

07:24to find a miniature of the Chrysler building he made for her. Sometime later, they go on a date

07:29at the bar. They have diner and share stories about their lives. She tells him that her father

07:34died when she was a teenager. After the dinner, Jim takes Aurora to the airlock and they get

07:39into the spacesuits. They go out for a spacewalk together. Jim finally has someone to share

07:44that magnificent experience with. Jim switches off the magnets on their boots and they float

07:49together in space. They come back inside and immediately kiss, retreat to his cabin and

07:54sleep together. Soon after, they start living like a couple. Aurora moves into his cabin and

07:59writes about her life on the ship. They jog together, eat together, sleep together. Jim

08:04explores the ship further and finds the hydroponics bay. He brings Aurora flowers. One day the ship

08:10passes by a red giant and they go to the observatory to see it. It's Aurora's birthday, so later that

08:16night they celebrate it in one of the many restaurants on the ship and then the bar. Jim goes to the

08:21washroom and prepares the ring he made for Aurora, while she stays in the bar chatting with Arthur.

08:26The android tells Aurora that Jim woke her up intentionally, unaware that he was still to keep

08:30that a secret. Suddenly, Jim comes back and she confronts him in absolute disbelief. She runs away

08:36furious and panicked. Jim comes back to his cabin to find all her things gone. He runs into her in the

08:42cantina the next day, but the moment he speaks, she runs away. Aurora is desperate. One night she goes

08:48over to Jim's cabin, punching and kicking him, wanting to kill him. Talking to her over the

08:53comm because she keeps avoiding him, Jim tries to apologize and explain his actions to her.

08:58He tells her he fell in love with her, but Aurora doesn't care. She can't forgive him for taking

09:03her life. One night, as Jim is in his cabin, another malfunction happens. The ship faces a critical

09:10error and the main command shuts down. Later, he walks into the elevator and it malfunctions.

09:15Aurora walks into the main concourse and sees that Jim has planted a tree there.

09:20Then, she goes to the cantina, where the food dispensary is also malfunctioning.

09:24Suddenly, both of them hear the voice of the deck chief over the comms, asking who planted the tree.

09:29They both run into the concourse and see Gus Mancuso standing in front of Jim's tree.

09:34They introduce themselves and tell the chief about the situation. He doesn't understand how three

09:39pods could fail. Mancuso takes them to the bridge and he discovers that there is something wrong with

09:43the ship, but the information on the systems has to be checked manually. When they leave the bridge

09:48a robot almost falls on their heads and the two of them tell Mancuso that malfunctions have been

09:52happening all over the ship more frequently. He says that shouldn't happen, as he shows them how

09:57to collect the data. Mancuso checks on the pods, when Jim joins him there. He's figured out what

10:03happened with Aurora's pod. The deck chief finds what Jim did to be terrible. Later, he's at the bridge

10:09checking the collected data, when Aurora joins him. They talk about what happened with her pod,

10:14but he tells her that he can't do anything about it. Jim walks in with the 16th broken robot.

10:19Mancuso feels the hibernation sickness, so he goes to rest, but as he walks out, he coughs out blood.

10:25That night, Aurora can't sleep, so she goes for a swim. Suddenly there's gravity lost throughout the

10:31ship and she starts drowning as the water from the pool moves with her. The gravity drive resets and she

10:36barely makes it out alive. They both run into each other going to find Mancuso. The three of them are

10:41back at the bridge, slowly discovering what has been going on with the ship. Mancuso figures out that

10:47something happened two years ago, taking out a major system. They need to find and fix what has caused

10:52the failure, because the entire ship is trying to pick up the slack. If they don't fix it, the entire

10:57vessel will be stranded. They go to find the problem, but Mancuso faints, so Jim and Aurora take him to

11:03the infirmary. He's dying and there are no treatments that can stop it or prolong the time he has left.

11:09Some time later, the three of them meet in the observatory and Mancuso gives Jim his ID bracelet,

11:14tells them to fix the ship and immediately perishes. Suddenly, the lights change to an alarming red and

11:20the ship starts shaking. Jim tells Aurora that he needs her help, and they run toward engineering,

11:25but there's another failure in the gravity drive. And immediately another one that afflicts Arthur as

11:30well. Jim deactivates him. They finally arrive in engineering and start looking for the problem.

11:36They find it in the power plant and as they open the hatch, Aurora gets sucked in. The asteroid has

11:41caused a breach in the hull in that area. Jim gets sucked in too, but he holds onto the hatch,

11:46as it keeps closing on him. Eventually he gets sucked in too, but they quickly manage to seal the

11:52breach. Instantly after fixing that problem, Jim realizes that there is more than one breach in the

11:57hull. The two of them follow the trajectory of the meteor and find that it has hit the

12:01reactor control computer. Jim thinks he can find replacement parts for it. They find the part and

12:07change it, but the process of venting the reactor still fails. They do it manually, but it fails again.

12:13Jim figures out that he needs to open the vent door from outside of the ship, so they can cool the

12:17reactor down. Both of them go to the airlock and as he's getting ready to go out, he gives Aurora Mancuso's

12:23bracelet, because he might not come back. She helps him with the suit and as he walks into the airlock

12:27she tells him to come back because she can't live on the ship without him. Aurora goes back to the

12:32reactor, where the temperature has hit critical heights. A bolt from the reactor propels into her

12:37arm, as Jim is getting closer to the vent from the outside and sees the door. The temperature rises in

12:43the reactor room, while he is trying to bypass the vent door to open it. He soon realizes that he'll have

12:48to manually hold the door open so the reactor can vent and he tells Aurora. She doesn't like the plan,

12:53but he goes ahead with it and tells her to vent the reactor. She doesn't want him to die and they argue,

12:58but he tells her that they have to save the other people and she vents the reactor. The process is

13:03successful, but the fumes from the reactor push Jim away and break his tether. The pressure in his suit

13:08is dropping too. He tells Aurora what happened and she moves as fast as she can to get to another suit

13:14and bring him in. He apologizes to her again. She puts on a suit and flies out to get him,

13:19but her tether is too short. She's pulled back, but suddenly grabs onto his tether and

13:24manages to pull him in. Aurora drags Jim into the infirmary, only to find out that he's already dead.

13:30She uses Mancuso's bracelet to override the medical protocols and to resuscitate him.

13:35The medical pod does the work automatically and revives Jim. Aurora forgives him. Later,

13:40Aurora fixes Arthur and they give Mancuso a proper space burial. Jim takes her to the infirmary and

13:46tells her that he's found a way to use the medical pod as a hibernation one. He tells her to get

13:51inside the pod and ride out the rest of the journey in there. But, as is later revealed,

13:55she declines and decides to stay with him, awake on the ship. Jim finally proposes to her and they

14:01live out their lives on the ship. 88 years later, the Avalon arrives on Homestead 2. The crew wakes up

14:07and finds the ship in a very unexpected state. Aurora leaves them a message, retelling the story

14:13of the life her and Jim had on the ship while the rest were sleeping.
