Ad Astra

Stunning visuals, and sound that really suits the atmosphere. The story is fine but it does feel slow and definitely is not a watch that most people can enjoy the whole way through. However I enjoyed it

It was possibly the slowest movie ever. O felt like i was watching paint dry

Emotional beautifully shot the best looking space film would have been amazing to watch in a dark cinema, great effects whoever lacks any real deep story and builds you up for and ending that is very ordinary and lacks a wow however it’s a film about sad reality, could have been faster paced. As well as made me care more about his relationship with his partner

The action sequences are bad ass, which almost outweighs the terribly slow, repetitive, self-reflecting narrations that go on forever. We pretty much get it right away, the whole movie didn't have to have that drone on the entire way. Nonetheless it's pretty good. Ad Astra… is a drama for sure, mostly, with some cool space action scenes

Visually overwhelming all star-movie, filled with gorgeous sf-scenes ...too bad the story is not flawless and too predictable ... great soundtrack by Max Richter and others

Loved it. Lots of philosophical thought around relationships, attachment and what people will do to exploit this for their own gains/narrative.

Tak nudny film, flaki z olejem. Nic ciekawego. Efekty spoko. Szkoda czasu

"He could only see what was not there, and totally missed what was right in front of him."--Roy McBride When we are focused on what we don't have, we tend to hurt those we have--this is the message of this 2019 film by James Gray, an important one. Though this film can feel slow and unengaging, when you understand its film, you will come to appreciate the contemplative music, the visually thrilling cinematography, and the meditative performance of Brad Pitt.

I don't normally leave reviews for movies, no matter how good or bad. But seeing the negative reviews almost dissuaded me from watching this, so I feel the need to counteract them. This movie is a PROFOUND exploration of the human condition. It delves deep into themes of isolation and our quest for meaning amidst the vastness of the universe (among other great themes). The negative reviews seem primarily founded in the lack of action sequences, but this film isn't supposed to be about action. It's about the emotional and psychological journey of Pitt's character. It demands attention to its subtleties, not it's actions. It is meant to offers a meditative experience on what it means to be human. It's honestly a masterpiece and it deserves far more appreciation for its depth, cinematography, and narrative ambition than it has received.

The film lacks a good story. It's about a father-son relationship that didn't go well. But thousands of times that story has been told much better elsewhere. Visually it is worth it, although it is very reminiscent of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. Especially it manages to convey the feeling of the emptiness of space in a way that I haven't felt so strongly before.
