No at all watchable for Hollywood buffs. But the introduction of the space genre is appreciable. Poor character development makes it a difficult, one time watch. Would've been better if taken care of visual effects. 5 starts for the representation of space genre.

Movie Reviews
A reluctant attempt.
Watch it for its brilliant attempt.
Honestly, Indians are truly commendable for their money spending habits. We spend less money but produce high standards almost always. A movie similar to this in Hollywood will cost ten times more just to produce the same effect with just a little bit better plot and VFX. In fact, Indians spent much less money sending 'Mangalyan' (our Mars orbiter) to Space with five times less budget than the movie 'Gravity'. That too, in their first attempt.
This movies ties the storyline and its characters seamlessly and keeps you at the edge of the seat with its thrilling music and second half plot. The first half was a bit lagging but the actor's performances was commendable especially Varun Tej who's choosing great scripts these days by the way. The only down sides of this movie is a predictable sci-fi plot with some scenes similar to prominent Hollywood movies like 'Gravity' and 'Interstellar' but it is still a great attempt at producing an engaging space thriller. Also, wear your seat belts kids and do NOT write when you're driving. Like seriously.
Worst sci-fi movie I've ever seen
In sci-fi, you expect a "what if...?" situation to be explored, but you don't want it to be too far from reality. Unfortunately, this whole movie doesn't make sense at all. They tried to make a super production, but the ignorance in science and space exploration, the problems solving themselves for no reason, and the misplaced values of the characters, made them miss the target from like, a million light-years. Can be entertaining if you like really bad movies, though.
