OPENS WEDNESDAY 12/21 Passengers There are 5,000 passengers aboard the Avalon spacecraft. They’re scheduled to hibernate for 120 years before arriving at a new colony. If anyone is going to wake up 90 years early and have free rein of the place, it might as well be Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence — two of the most watchable actors working today. Their charisma, however, can’t make this slick sci-fipic soar. Pratt’s Jim, a mechanic, is the first to rise out of his pod. After a year of hanging out solo in the state-of-the-art hub, he makes the controversial decision to wake a random (albeit gorgeous) girl, Lawrence’s Aurora. The couple fall in love, with Aurora unaware that Jim is responsible for her doomed destiny. It’s a fascinating psychological study, heightened…

Never lie down when you can be asleep.” I can’t remember who told it to me, or when, as I was probably asleep at the time. 5.
