When they discover a fourth person aboard, played by Shamier Anderson, his unexpected presence places them all in jeopardy. AISHA HARRIS, HOST: The space travel in "Stowaway" is pretty down-to-earth.

Stowaway review: Sluggish yet thrilling, but this is no Gravity! One of the biggest shortcomings of the movie is the editing by Ryan Morrison. It could have been way crisper and the runtime could have been shortened by at least 10 minutes For the unversed, stowaways are people who travel secretly in any form of transportation like buses, trams, trains, aircrafts, etc. Joe Penna’s Stowaway takes it a notch higher by getting a stowaway passenger in a spaceship travelling to Mars for a two-ye...

Thats the fate awaiting unintended stowaway Michael Adams (Shamier Anderson) in Netflixs gripping new sci-fi movie Stowaway.

April 22, 2021 Imagine suddenly waking up disoriented in an unfamiliar place.

0Shares The vastness of space is both wondrous and horrifying. It’s amazing to explore the vastness of what surrounds the planet, but shocking to learn how those surroundings are all consuming nothing .
