Critic Consensus
Critical reception for 'The Space Between Us' is largely negative, with reviewers finding a significant gap between the film's promising concept and its execution. The romantic elements between the leads receive modest acknowledgment as the film's relative bright spot. Critics broadly fault the film for generic, demographically targeted storytelling and a poorly realized science-fiction premise. One reviewer goes so far as to argue the film reinforces the case against the Young Adult genre entirely.
