Review of Ad Astra

Ad Astra (2019)
8/10
This is no Star Wars
29 September 2019
If you are looking for a Star Wars type sci-go movie, with a Christmas Tree collage of explosions and special effects, don't go to this one. This movie belongs more in the category of Star Trek I, 2001 Space Odyssey, and even a little bit of the movie event horizon. This movie focuses more on character development than anything else, with a horror theme plot backdrop. If you can accept the movie's style, it was ok. The scene where the protagonist gets through Neptune's rings is pure Hollywood unrealism, however. Film effective gives a fascinating (and in my opinion realistic) portrayal of the political situation of a future Moon colony. A conflict between government vs governments, corporations vs corporations, governments vs corporations. Brian Ghilliotti
