Ad Astra kind of stays with you as front and center is the leads relationship with his father and his fathers relationship with the rest of the universe. Pitt is in every scene and narrates throughout. Because of the root of the story is actually relationships the far flinging sci-fi would work as a play - this is because so much of the external is superfluous. While stylish and 2001-esque some zingy scenes seem tacked on to ramp up the heartbeat. However it is a smart movie with a message but definitely not a thriller like Gravity which operated in lower stratospheres. Serious level 3000.
