Having no high expectations going in, I thought this was pretty good. It isn’t too similar to other sci/fi movies you see nowadays and in some ways is a great homage to classic space cinema. Parts of it reminded me of 2001, one of my top ten movies. Brad Pitt brings the lead character to life perfectly and even brings out some genuine emotion toward the end. There is also some really good directing in here, and I even thought the moon cars and space needle were cool. All in all, this is solid!

Emotion is a powerful tool. At first, Brad Pitt didn't seem appropriate for the role, but boy was I wrong. I still think he is one of the most underrated actors out there (maybe not any more with his Oscar win). His emotional performance, particularly the scene in which he shares with Tommy Lee Jones, is so amazing it adds a very nice icing on an already rich cake. The film is also very well directed technically, with the action sequence in the dead silence of space being another highlight.

A very long introspection to nowhere. That's what it felt like. I feel it could have been epic. However, sitting through a narrative this long, without really getting the feeling that anything moved forward or happened is rather unsatisfying.

Every part of "Ad Astra" has been lifted from other, classic sci-fi films, from the visual aesthetics, to the themes, to the design. Yet it never quite misuses, or feels plagiaristic in its intent. It's more a well made, sincere homage to 2001 and the like, which in the age of sequels, remakes, and reboots, is a kind of originality all its own.

Just when you think a sci-fi movie is going to be reasonably believable, (unlike Gravity, for eg), along comes this festering pile of putrescence to dispel THAT idea. OK, its concept is pretty far fetched, but the space monkeys, Mad max sequence and shoot outs, intersellar space ships that can land on planets, ships you can access at time of launch through a convenient airlock, and the ability to propel yourself back home from Neptune by nothing more than an atomic blast is just plain STUPID.

Really poorly marketed. Great first half, meandering and pointless second half. Three immaculate sequences carry it to over 50.

The fight of a man that was abandoned by his father, a hero for the rest of the world, to be over it. Mostly no sci-fi (it's actually irrelevant to the story, just an exotic background) and for my taste at least too many (bad) offs, to many unnecessary things that could be masked as visual poetry and deep thinking but feel totally empty. I found it far too long, slow, boring and vacuous, though technically it's quite beautiful to watch and listen.

Glacially-paced sci-fi offers Pitt an opportunity to play very low-key (so much so we miss his movie-star charisma) but the film neither has the ideas ("my Daddy didn't love me!") nor the epic scope to warrant the patience required to be immersed in this. Some striking moments and imagery contrast with unforgivably goofy ones (the monkey attack (!)) - allusions to APOCALYPSE NOW (Pitt's labored narration) and 2001 are more hopeful than successful.

A dreamy journey into the disquieting but promising unknown that balances somehow being cerebral but thrilling all at once in its best stretches. Definitely made me think a bit of both Apocalypse Now in its narrative structure and 2001 in its look and tone. I’m not the sure the ending fully resolved the mystery and promise of its early acts but it’s still a very interesting journey worth taking.

This is a slow, dull space fable about (I think) the need for a guy to open up emotionally and deal with his daddy issues. Just because its slow Sci-Fi, you don't get extra Art points like you're making Solaris.

I really, really loved this movie, but it's definitely not for everyone. The slow burn is a brilliant conscious choice, but I can see that being a huge turn-off for anyone going into this expecting it to be bigger and more epic than it is. It's actually a very simple story, encased in a gorgeous presentation of outstanding visual and sound work. Think 2001: A Space Odyssey, rather than Gravity.

(rewatch) probably should have received more Among the Best of the Year/Deserves Oscar Consideration blotter, because I think it’s one of the 2019 movies that people will still be talking about in 20, 30 years. it does get a little draggy & ponderous when TLJ shows up, though.

Looks cool. Lots of jumping into space and grabbing handholds at the last minute. Agent K was a real dick at the end.
