Voyagers

What to Know

Critics Consensus

It has a game cast and a premise ripe with potential, but Voyagers drifts in familiar orbit rather than fully exploring its intriguing themes.

Read Critics Reviews

Audience Says

It has a decent cast and some interesting twists on its Lord of the Flies-inspired story, but Voyagers is slow to get going and sputters out in the end.

Kevin Maher

Times (UK)

"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.

Rated: 2/5

Ed Power

Daily Telegraph (UK)

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

Time Out

Voyagers is not a film blessed with subtlety, especially not when it comes to laughable wild animal montages when the kids go, err, wild

Rated: 2/5

Serena Seghedoni

Loud and Clear Reviews

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.

Rated: 2/5

Rebecca Johnson

Film Focus Online

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.

Rated: 2/5

MSB Reviews

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.
