Last night I watched...
I.S.S. (2024)
I wasn't aware of this film's release and only heard about it after it arrived on DVD, Blu-Ray and streaming. I mistook it for a horror film.
It's actually a thriller and it takes place aboard the International Space Station.
Two astronauts arrive at the station, joining four other astronauts already there. All told, three are American and three are Russian. They go about their daily business, performing experiments, until strange flashes of light are noticed on Earth. Nuclear war has broken out among nations. The American and Russian commanders on the space station are given secret instructions to take over the space station from their counterparts.
The setup is intriguing, but unfortunately this one goes off the rails. There's tension, however, I'm not sure the situations are believable.
Directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite
Stars Ariana DeBose, Chris Messina, John Gallagher Jr., Masha Mashkova, Costa Ronin, and Pilou Asbæk
