Our take
Kate Mara plays an astronaut quarantined after a crash who fears an alien followed her home. No U.S. rating yet; the UK rating is 15 for strong horror and injury detail. Reviews suggest teens with occasional swearing and one icky body-horror moment. Tense but not especially gory compared with R-rated horror
Uplifting themes
Survival focus; little explicit moral framing Sam persists through doubt; authority figures are ambiguous

Talk after watching
- Paranoia versus reality drives the plot. How does the film keep viewers guessing?
- Body horror is brief but gross. Know your teen's tolerance for medical ick.
- Space isolation can feel claustrophobic. Discuss coping with anxiety themes.
