“This is what the standalone Star Wars movies should feel like” - Peter Debruge, Variety
A teenage girl and her father travel to a remote alien moon, aiming to strike it rich. They’ve secured a contract to harvest a large deposit of the elusive gems hidden in the depths of the moon's toxic forest. But there are others roving the wilderness and the job quickly devolves into a fight to survive. Forced to contend not only with the forest's other ruthless inhabitants, but with her own father's greed-addled judgment, the girl finds she must carve her own path to escape.

Reviews
Looks good
"Great movie and great blu-ray art. Wish I would have gotten the slip cover while it was available though."
— Filip P. (5/5)
I was sad that I
"I was sad that I missed out on the limited edition of this release but I couldn’t pass it grabbing it during the last sale. It’s actually a fun little sci fi film before Pedro Pascal hit it huge. Reminded me of playing a video game at times but not in a bad way. You get a fair amount of extras even if much of them aren’t that long, and although I’m sad not to have the slipcover, thankfully the artwork on the inlay is equally as good!"
— Kyle C. (4/5)
Pedro Pascal is amazing
"What a great blind buy. Hits all the right notes for multiple genre, horror and action and thriller and sci-fi, just great! The design work of some of the environments and characters is great. 4K is the best presentation this film could possibly get."
— Brian F. (5/5)
Didn't work for me
"I really wanted to love this but it wasn't for me. It looks great and the two leads are excellent but I just couldn't get into it. Great to see Sophie Thatcher before she blew up."
— Joshua S. (3/5)
Interesting Sci- Fi
"not usually a genre i dwell that much into, i read reviews, and watched trailer and gave this a go. applaud the cinematography and story for this rather lower budget sci fi film. Lots of extras and transfer looks great"
— lloyd N. (5/5)
Decent Sci-Fi
"A relatively low-budget but ambitious production, Prospect is pretty good modern sci-fi, and one of the better VS partner releases of recent times. Nice art too."
