Fueled by character development and setting instead of special effects, Prospect is a sci-fi story whose style is defined - and enriched -- by its limitations.

The defiantly lo-fi "Prospect" is a smartly entertaining throwback that doesn't need a Marvel movie's worth of CGI to make its point. Nov 8, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

The film balances genre thrills with a detailed depiction of prospecting on an alien world, created via a mix of practical locations (shot in a damp Northwestern forest) and some psychedelic digital backdrops. Nov 5, 2018 | Full Review…

It's rare to see a sci-fi movie that genuinely has a true grit to it, a characteristic that bolsters its screenplay through its more underwhelming passages. Nov 2, 2018 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

"Prospect" has one thing that most indie sci-fi movies don't, and which any human desperately needs when traveling to unfamiliar worlds: atmosphere. Mar 12, 2018 | Full Review…

Confident in its sci-fi knowledge from the 60s to present day indies likeMoon, Prospect acknowledges these references and schemas but confidently creates something fresh and vibrant. Apr 1, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

In Prospect, the mundane becomes memorable. History repeats itself in theme, but this sci-fi sandbox is a whole new world. Imaginative, robust, and impressively fine-tuned. Mar 8, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Combining elements of The Defiant Ones (1958) and True Grit (whether Henry Hathaway's 1969 original or the Coen brothers' 2010 remake), Prospect may come with the interstellar trappings of sci-fi, but it has as much in common with a frontiers western Feb 22, 2019 | Full Review…

While many sci-fi films rely heavily on visual effects and the idiosyncrasies of foreign worlds, Prospect entertains viewers in the best way possible: with substance rather than grandeur. Feb 9, 2019 | Rating: 8.7/10 | Full Review…

Hits more than it misses and even when it stumbles, it is still making more of an effort than a lot of recent genre efforts. Feb 7, 2019 | Full Review…
