Fallout

This is a bit of a cold war type movie, in the sense that we have terrorists sabotaging a space station, in order to satisfy their control freak demons.

Being set in space makes it tough to make interesting, but it can be done.

Isolated, closed quarters can go either way. It depends on the director more than the writer.

The script isn't great, but that doesn't matter. "Enclosed spaces" takes good directing. It takes proper technique with cameras and with cut away scenes, and with interesting props.

These are horribly managed here.

True, the worst settings are mundane ones such as city streets, motor vehicles, and offices, with the very dullest being submarines and space stations.

Still, this is where directing is important. You need a lot of grunge, for one thing, and that's missing here. Everyone's hair stays perfectly in place, and you never get the feeling the characters are anywhere but on a movie set.

This is difficult to stay awake through. Especially for guys, since the heroine is very average looking. It would help to add some grunge to her appearance to make her more dynamic, but that is a major failure of the director again.

This is how not to direct a movie.
