Ad Astra (2019)
Not Worth Your Time
I live for Sci-fi movies but what a disappointment this movie is. Ad Astra is Latin for into the stars, but the movie is more into the trash can. It's a boring script, mostly uneventful and the science is just plane wrong to make it believable. Grade school kids know sounds doesn't travel in space as there is no atmosphere to carry the sound waves, but we are to believe a bandit attack on the moon using moonbuggies has explosions the astronauts can hear. Ok I give some theatrical leeway but the scene where Brad is suspended in space inside his space craft while it's blasting to another planet was too much. Some artificial gravity is created by the propulsion in that situation so the film either had bad advisers or just felt the audience was not intelligent at all.
Chernobyl (2019)
Totally Worth Watching
One of the best mini-series this year. I remember the accident back in the 80's and the news never explained what actually happened. Riveting and captivating to watch. The only negative I would give is the English accents. Stellen Skarsgard steals the show; his performance comes across as being the most Russian and they way I remember Russians under the Soviet regime. The other English accents take away from the authenticity as it would have been better to have more Russian accents.
Flat Earth: The Biggest Lie of All (2015)
An Incredible waste of time
What else can I say so i'll say it again. An incredible waste of time. Was expecting the flat earth folks to make their case and nothing is presented. It's all about a collection of people saying how they became flat earthers. Oh wait I said people.... I really meant morons.
Despite the Falling Snow (2016)
Don't Waste Your Time
A spy thriller that fails to thrill. Characters aren't believable and it lacks suspense. Plot is simple.
