“Life” (*** out of four) was an extremely well-made space horror thriller about a team of scientists (Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson, Idris Elba, Ryan Reynolds, Hiroyuki Sonada) aboard the international Space Station who encounter a rapidly evolving life form who caused extermination on Mars and threatens to destroy the crew and thus Earth. Strikingly similar to “Alien” at times but hurtles along breathlessly with enough scares and thrills to transcend it’s origins. Gorgeously shot by Seamus McGarvey and impressively directed by Daniel Espinosa.
