  Laughed out loud, looked away, cringed, celebrated the brilliance of the cast ✅
  Put off eating prawns for life ❌ 

  Watching this with an audience would have been great!

  Slingshot 2024

  ★★½ Watched 04 Feb 2025

  Fairly typical ‘going mad in space’ psychological movie, but without the pressure of mankind depending on the mission and some interesting differences. I thought the performances were good, despite the permanent look of ‘this man needs a coffee’, however I didn’t feel fully invested.

  This lingered with me afterwards, which is usually not a bad thing!
