A film that finds its theme halfway through and ultimately too late. Why should we care about Pittโs relationship to his father(Lee Jones) when throughout the first half of the film no one else does, least of all Brad? Itโs built to be the crux of the film but by the time the climax hits Iโd be surprised anyone cares at all, that is if theyโre still awake.
Ad Astra is a beautifully shot bore attempting to salvage meaning albeit it far too late.
