The climactic conversation between mopey son and loony father must have been written by a 9th grade creative writing student.

B rad Pitt never looked more beautiful than in this mesmeric, flawed, superbly photographed and designed space adventure from director and co-writer James Gray. But this is a film with thrilling ambition and reach. Pitt plays Major Roy McBride, an astronaut impeccably cool under pressure, and with a dedication to the job that has perhaps cost him his marriage to Eve a mute and largely flashback-centred cameo for Liv Tyler. Roy is, moreover, the son of revered astronaut Clifford McBride Tommy Lee Jones , who taught his boy the values of hard work and emotional self-control, and who became legendary on the news of his death decades ago while heading up a pioneer exploratory project near Neptune. Roy demonstrates his own sang-froid while repairing a rig the height of seven skyscrapers, which begins to shudder under the impact of a terrifying power surge, until McBride free-climbs out to shut off the voltage: a quite stunning opening sequence. His superiors consider that now is the moment to tell Roy that his father may still be alive, having somehow gone rogue or gone native in deep space, and is causing these terrifyingly dangerous surges. Yet perhaps the most interesting comparison is with Terrence Malick, particularly The Tree of Life , where Pitt is playing the father and Sean Penn is the grownup son, and the journey — the journey we all make — is into the past, into the treacherous territory of our own memories. It is when Ad Astra becomes disorientating and hallucinatory that it is most Malickian.

He decides to take action to prevent further damage, leading to a life-changing decision. After Clifford agrees to accompany him back to Earth, Roy finishes arming the payload and they climb out on the station's surface in preparation for returning to the Cepheus. Not a psychological thriller although many attempted "deep and philosophical" monologues and constant "psychological" assessments. So yeah, I give this movie a 6 and I'm sad to see how a possible epic movie is ruined by a weak screenplay. Believing that he can save the captain, he tapes over the broken helmet visor of the captain's spacesuit and carries him back to the ship, where he is declared to be already dead. Along the way, he travels with Colonel Pruitt Donald Sutherland , an old friend of Clifford's, who is sent along to make sure the son doesn't acquiesce to the father. Runtime 2 hours 3 minutes.
