Sending children to spend their lives in outer space like robots, with strict rules, while depriving them of their humanity. The drama was inevitable. 1 star for mission control. 5 stars for the movie.

Nah, mission control had the right idea for minimizing risks to mission success but their real mistake was putting the hormone suppressors in a separate drink. It should have been in an implant or a staple food, something everyone ate. (But then we wouldn’t have a movie).

Chemically neutering a bunch of pre-pubescent kids was a cold-hearted decision, fer sure, but the designers knew survival, good decision making and long term planning ain’t exactly hormonal teens’ main concerns. And as we saw, 30 horny and aggressive teens left alone on a long boring trip ain’t exactly a recipe for success.
