Has quite a few spoilers. Read at your own risk I didn't watch this movie in quite a while but I do remember a few things that upset me in this movie. First of all when the baby (Patrik) is blown out of his mother's stomach you can clearly see that it's a doll and when the doctor holds him you see its a real baby. (Okay so that was hard to fake so it's more forgivable) but shortly before he's born you see his sister sitting there reading a book. How old is this girl? Four? A girl her age is not supposed to witness these kinds of things. And the whole spacecraft-agency thing kinda upset me because of the names they used. Such as Zeus. Call me a nerd but I know about some of NASA's history (through an audio book) and from what I recall there were no such names in their programs. And if they were able to use footage from one of the Apollo launches and get mock ups of their uniforms why couldn't they call their agency and space craft by their real names? And the fact that kids run things there is stupid and upsetting as well. Regarding his world travels, when sir John invites Patrik to join him to go around the world he asks 'other countries?' and sir john stutters and says 'yes' as if its not the most important detail. And Patrick says so easily that he agrees. How naive can this kid get? He barely knows the man and he could have abducted him. And when he gets Allen's letter and asks his father about it he just closes the door at his face. (That's why he agreed to go in the first place) But that's just insensitive. What the heck? What was that good for? (The door thing) and in the trial after the number one tenor in the world dies it's obvious that everyone is conspiring against him and lying even though they are supposed to be under oath. The only guy who's trying to help him is being shut up partially because he doesn't listen to opera. Where did this conspiracy come from? He's just a kid! What do they want from him? And one more thing. There's something weird about Patrick in general and i'm referring to his face. In the end when he's in space and the camera focuses on his face he looks like he has down syndrome because his eyes look kind of slanted like some of them do. And i'm like what? Maybe the actor has down syndrome?... But maybe that's just me. Anyway i'm sorry for the rant. I just wanted to get it out of my system and tell you guys what I think of this movie and i'm sorry this review was so long
