I know this movie is set in “outer space”, but it’s not set in the future. I don’t think the movie was released in the year 2205.
(This is one of my favorite movies. I’ll wait until later to gather my thoughts before I post my opinions).

This is old school fun movie entertainment and even teaches kids about loving your sibling. Its based off of jumanji but set in space. This is also waaaay before kristen stewart decided to play the cult games. Good family movie and kids will enjoy
