An interesting premise that puts a small crew in a tiny metal cage far above Earth when nuclear war breaks out. The setup of the film is tight and the first half hour is pretty exciting, after all the chess pieces are on the board the film falls into more standard patterns and the second half isn't quite as thrilling.
The effects are proper, the actors do a solid job and the dilemma is an interesting one. My main issue for me was that the paranoia-based tension wasn't strong enough to keep me on the edge of my seat. I've seen enough similar films and the interior of the ISS is too dull to spend a long time there with just a couple of actors. Still, decent fun.
