Neil Burger's implausible, strangely forgettable tale of teens running rampant on an interplanetary mission overreaches while underwriting its characters.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 10, 2024

Voyagers ends where it should have begun, taking one too many detours to tell the compelling story of the first generation of lab-bred humans on a scouting mission to space.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 26, 2023

What starts as an interesting and intriguing concept unfortunately turns into an uncomfortable, bland and lacklustre sci-fi movie that is a chore to get through.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 6, 2023

Voyagers holds a well-known, successful sci-fi formula and takes it through the most uninteresting, unsurprising, frustratingly generic development path. It’s tough to find a positive aspect in such a hollow movie.

| Original Score: D- | Jul 24, 2023

The problem is that the film is mostly made of misdirections as it gestures towards interesting elements, both narratively and visually, that are far too short lived for their own good.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 17, 2022

You can’t help but think a deeper and slightly darker version of this movie would give some of its themes even more bite.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 17, 2022

The script fails to create a captivating plot and fills its landscape with shallow characters that are nowhere near compelling.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Jun 8, 2022

The film, above and beyond anything else, is a terrible blend of uncomfortable morals and annoying immaturity that makes it clear that this project should be sent into space away from anyone who might think it is worth the time of day.

| Feb 22, 2022

Although many of Burger's visual techniques look neat enough, his screenplay proves unconvincing and overstated.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 12, 2022

Think of Voyagers as High Life for himbos.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 3, 2021

Its microcosmic allegory is thin, and the execution is unconvincing.

Colin Farrell brings some weight to the proceedings but even he can't distract from the predictable teens-gone-wild-in-space plot.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 12, 2021

Ultimately, Voyagers might appeal to a very specific YA crowd, but even they might poke their holes through this one.

| Oct 9, 2021

"Lord of the Flies meets Sex Education in space" sounds like an unmissable yarn, yet nothing at any point in this criminally undernourished sci-fi lives up to the potential of its premise.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 8, 2021

All in all, a serviceable YA sci-fi story.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 7, 2021

A low-grade thriller that plays out like a zero-gravity Hollyoaks.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 7, 2021

The film relies too much on sci fi clich茅s and the plot holes become difficult to ignore. While the acting is good, the characterisation is lazy and dull. Moreover, the production design is wanting.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 6, 2021

Outside of the Lord of the Flies parallels, Voyagers is a familiar and rather derivative Young Adult thriller.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 5, 2021

Burger guides a world that looks and moves slickly, with clean production design suiting the sleek looks of crew members who could pass as fashion models.

You can imagine a teacher showing this in school and then leading a class discussion about ethics until the bell rings for lunch.
