Gosling Leads a Lavish Yet Derivative Space Adventure

TL;DR Summary
Variety’s Owen Gleiberman calls Project Hail Mary a lavish, entertaining space epic: Gosling delivers a relatable, charming performance as a lone scientist and an onboard alien buddy adds warmth, but the movie is overlong and too derivative of Interstellar and other sci‑fi hits, with a padded finale and a formulaic emotional arc that undercuts its buzzy spectacle.
