Fancy something to distract us from the escalating coronanxiety.

Is this film worth a watch?

Yeah, quite enjoyed it, not I think particularly historically accurate but watchable.

Moderately enjoyable but no more - Jones and Redmayne make it though - if it weren’t for them I think I would have found it pretty dull tbh..!

Yeah, it's passable. I didn't begrudge the time I spent watching is which is quite the accolade these days.

Was fine and worth a watch. Nothing especially memorable but I enjoyed it.

Is this meant to be loosely based on Auguste Piccard? Or just a Hollywood adventure film?

Yep, I really enjoyed it. Some of the views/CGI are pretty impressive.

Definitely not historically accurate from what I've read but not too bad.

Worth a watch but I'd never watch it again to be honest.

Must say the feeling of vertigo was intense though. Rare for me to get that in a movie but a few times I wanted to close my eyes!

28,000 ft without supplemental oxygen. Don't be ridiculous.

5/10.

No idea about scientific or historical accuracy, but as a form of entertainment, I got bored and switched it off I'm afraid. And I watched the Irishman in one sitting.
