The sci-fi movie Passengers looks interesting enough in the trailers. Moviegoers have also been excited to watch the movie since it has Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt in it. But has the movie impressed everyone who has watched it?
After watching it, one might feel that some story is missing from the movie. One also might feel that the Pratt and Lawrence’s romance is not very charming.
Storyline of Passengers
The movie’s storyline features a spaceship called Avalon. It is currently on a 120-year voyage to reach a distant colony planet called Homestead Colony. There are 5,000 people on this spaceship who are going there.
The real twist in Passengers comes when a malfunction takes place inside the hibernation pods of Avalon. This malfunction awakes the passengers 90 years earlier. The trailer features writer Aurora Lane (Lawrence) and mechanical engineer Jim Preston (Pratt) who are passengers on the ship dealing with this mystery.
