Review of Ad Astra (2019) by Movieriffing — 08 Jan 2020
Director James Gray presents a visually stunning film, but one that lacks substance. Ad Astra's slow and methodical pacing culminates in a disappointingly hackneyed climax, where the mounting tension goes to waste.
With nothing new to say, Ad Astra resorts to the same messages on family and appreciation that other films have been doing more uniquely for years. Put Ad Astra on in the background as a pretty screensaver and you will not be missing much.
