Scorpio One

About This Movie

Scorpio One is a curious entry in the late '90s sci-fi landscape. The film is wrapped in a tense atmosphere, where the stakes feel almost claustrophobic, given the setting aboard a space station. The pacing has this slow-burn quality that ramps up as the oxygen depletes, adding real suspense. It's interesting how it tackles themes of human ambition and the consequences of pushing boundaries too far. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, have a certain gritty charm that you don't see much in today's CGI-heavy landscape. The performances are quite solid, especially given the limited resources. There's something about its tone that captures the era, and if you appreciate the nuances of low-budget sci-fi, it’s worth a watch.
