I don't know about you, but I am a sucker for love movies! I did not get a chance to go to the theater to see The Space Between Us, so when I had the chance to get my hands on a review copy, I was thrilled.

If you haven't seen this movie, you are missing out. I would consider this more of a chick flick, however, my husband loved this movie as well. From Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. Starring Gary Oldman (The Dark Night Rises, Harry Potter), Asa Butterfield (Ender’s Game, Hugo), Carla Gugino (Night At The Museum, “Wayward Pines”), Britt Robertson (A Dog’s Purpose, Tomorrowland), BD Wong (Jurassic World, “Law & Order: SVU”) and Janet Montgomery (“This Is Us”, Black Swan), The Space Between Us takes viewers on an out-of-this-world journey that reveals all the incredible beauty of the Earth and proves love is a universal language. From STXfilms (The Edge of Seventeen, Bad Moms), The Space Between Us on Blu-ray™, DVD and Digital HD is filled with special bonus features including a never-before-seen alternate ending and deleted scenes!

What is it about? Oh my it is SO GOOD! 

In this interplanetary adventure, a space shuttle embarks on the first mission to colonize Mars, only to discover after takeoff that one of the astronauts is pregnant. Shortly after landing, she dies from complications while giving birth to the first human born on the red planet – never revealing who the father is. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Gardner Elliot – an inquisitive, highly intelligent boy who reaches the age of 16 having only met 14 people in his very unconventional upbringing. 

While searching for clues about his father, and the home planet he’s never known, Gardner begins an online friendship with a street smart girl in Colorado named Tulsa. When he finally gets a chance to go to Earth, he’s eager to experience all of the wonders he could only read about on Mars – from the most simple to the extraordinary. But once his explorations begin, scientists discover that Gardner’s organs can’t withstand Earth’s atmosphere. 

Eager to find his father, Gardner escapes the team of scientists and joins with Tulsa on a race against time to unravel the mysteries of how he came to be, and where he belongs in the universe.

Thoughts: 

This movie is brilliant. The effects are amazing. The love story is tear jerking. (Yes, I cry at everything). I loved the ending. It wasn't cheesy or "REALLY?". The physically toll that it takes on Gardner is also a great story. I adore how the two go on the typical run from authorities road trip, stealing various cars and stopping in Las Vegas on the way to California, trying to outrun the authorities and his mounting health problems along the way. I don't want to give away too much, however, I do know that this movie was great and it is a MUST see for sure.
