The plot is a disjointed mess, lacking coherence and depth, leaving audiences scratching their heads rather than marveling at the stars. Characters are painfully one-dimensional, with motivations that feel contrived and dialogue that often borders on cringe-worthy. Despite the film's ambitious premise, it fails to deliver any meaningful character development, making it hard to invest in their journeys. The acting is equally subpar; even seasoned performers seem lost in a script that offers them little to work with. Their performances range from wooden to overly dramatic, failing to evoke any genuine emotion or connection with the audience. It's as if they were all trapped in a zero-gravity environment where creativity was sucked out of them.
