My Movie Review: The movie is stunning vast feature prove's there are more to see in space:) Ad Astra is a rare interplanetary sighting not to missed it goes beyond what's expected as you immerse yourself to the space it goes deeply to a more personal story about son's longingness for father who left child in years and things unanswered into a voyage far beyond man's reach:) I never thought it would be this great with cinematography that speaks volume to the amount of work they put in and its worthy for in sight to the advancement show you'll never think possible! Welcome To The Moon who knew there's life there as they build impressive set piece that took me by surprise futuristic and battlefield as unauthorized men shoot to kill nice action in space:0 The Red Planet becomes a home-based for astronauts exploration as it continue to amaze me a mayday call add excitement and fear to the unknown as a gorilla burst into the capsule ship:) Another surprise but the exploration doesn't stop as take a quick glimpse of Jupiter and Saturn took place so close on top as sprung of hope pop when we reach The Luminous Blue Neptune!

Movie News: It feels like we’ve been spoiled by space. Ever since Gravity seemingly changed the game, science-fiction has had to work harder than ever to impress us. It’s almost like the genre’s already peaked. As picking up the space-gauntlet, director James Gray quixotically heralded Ad Astra as being “the most realistic depiction of space ever”. And fair dos, this film is beautiful: from the glistening cinematography to artfully celestial framing to the seamless visual effects (some shots use actual photos of the moon’s surface), it all looks real. What sets it apart from recent gravity-defying films, however, is the setting. This is a future that feels recognisably familiar and deeply plausible, a world in which space travel has become commercialised, normalised, and blighted by the same overpriced pillows as the budget airline. The wonder of space has been replaced by the mundanities and conflicts of Earth; the moon is a gaudy tourist trap and disputed territory, not unlike an episode of Futurama. Throughout, we’re drip-fed morsels of information about the new inter-planetary infrastructure and each new revelation is a delicious bit of speculative world-building, ‘sci-future-fact’ rather than sci-fi:0
