Cargo

Cargo
2009
Switzerland
Starring:  Anna-Katharina Schwabroh, Martin Rapold, and Regula Grauwiller

Cargo is a Swiss sci-fi movie.  With that said not many sci-fi movies have come from Switzerland.  Cargo is unique in some of the environment that the story takes place in.  The ship is cool and there are some really cool looking scenes.  Production wise this movie is visually entertaining.

I've had a problem with Hollywood specifically for the better part of the past decade though:  Hollywood can't seem to do anything original, everything is a prequel, a sequel, or heavily borrows plots and story lines from already produced movies.  This movie though far from a Hollywood production follows suite there.  The plot was paper thin and could be predicted before you were halfway through the movie.  It also borrowed from the plots of a half dozen or more blockbuster sci-fi movies ranging from the mid 50s to nearly present day.  There are a couple of blunders if one picks apart the science involved in the move, but a movie is a move some scientific blunders are acceptable in my book.

With all of that said, I am more then happy to help support independent film and watch this movie.  It does have some uniqueness about it and is unique in the way some of the material is presented throughout the movie.
