400 Days (2015)

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

This movie started out ok, this movie could have been good. Good idea, decent actors, Then...???... 4 "astronauts" are a part of a study on the phycological effects of extended space travel, where they are isolated from the outside world. Studied and watched in a underground "pseudo" space ship, that mocks ship life.Locked in, days start to pass, but there isn't a gradual people start to lose it, it's all of a sudden people lost it, then weird other stuff starts happening. Which then you start to question what's really happening to some of the characters. GREAT! This is what is keeping me watching... but that's all that happens, the story goes deeper into this rabbit hole, and then...... Nothing, absolutely nothing, all this build up of what happened, what's real what's not then, white light, literally, and credits. I sat with my jaw on the floor and said "Are you f'ing kidding me!? You're not gonna finish?" There is not even an ending where it could be maybe it was all a hallucination or maybe something happened to earth (which was very vague by the way) and they are screwed, and you can kinda talk it out with someone who watched it with you... nope it just went blank and didn't finish. What a waste of time. I watch a lot of cheese, a lot of B rated titles and this was just pure lame sauce!

What a terrible movie. The plot doesn't make any sense. It looks cheap and the actors look like they don't want to be there.

The ending was vague and disappointing. I loved the mystery of the story but the end did not justify the story line. A lot more could have been done with this plot.

This is an interesting movie with an amazing cast. A lot of reviews on here indicate that the movie lacked a real ending. I recommend watching it for yourself, and getting your own take on it. What I personally got out of it is that the whole thing was, unknown by the four astronauts, "reality TV" for 400 days, an extreme, psychological Big Brother. Cameras recording them 24/7, even night vision cameras on the "planet surface". At the end, the congratulating video with the applause, then the hatch opening, with bright light shining down at the end after all of that primitive darkness. This movie will make you think, I highly recommend watching it!
