Space survival movies involving creature horror have hit an all-time low in terms of popularity among viewers, as well as in qualitative terms, ever since the Aliens franchise saw consecutive failures in the last decade. Light, directed by Matt Woollard, contributes to the genre’s further downfall on the silver screen through sheer laziness in crafting a compelling storyline. Despite having an interesting premise and a few fleeting moments of brilliance shining through thanks to it tight, atmospheric treatment of the narrative, the movie lacks the intent and direction to land a proper ending, turning the entire thing into a hot mess.

Light is set in an unspecified distant future when the human populace has become a spacefaring, colonizing species. As the movie begins, a citizen of Allied Earth, Samira Grey, crash-lands her capsule on a foggy, treacherous planet known as Krake.

That means he'll be tasked with directing his ex-girlfriend (he and Stewart dated from about 2005 to 2009) while also acting alongside his current girlfriend.
