...like so many sci-fi films on Netflix, this story deserved a 6-8 hr mini-series treatment, the material was wasted in this one and done film. There are WAY too many unanswered backstory questions left dangling so this turns out to be a very unsatisfying story. However - as others have said similarly - there was so much potential that was just squandered at the end. It really started going off the rails when Hillary Swank's un-named character entered. None of that from that point on was neither well-motivated nor made cohesive sense. This really, really needs to be a mini-series, it's a wasted effort in this treatment.
