Thinking Through a Narrative's Trajectory: "Passengers" Falls Short

The film, "Passengers," raises fundamental questions about life, especially as regards our attitude toward means and ends.

For film to wrestle well with fundamental questions, the screenwriters have to think through the deep implications of where the questions lead the writers.
