A touching story at the heart of which lies the distance between the father and the son. More often than not the relationship between a father and a son is that of distance. This film effectively portrays that by literally placing a distance of Earth and Neptune. A story which is as much about saving the earth as it is about laying the past to rest. It's visuals and portrayal of space and the various human bases waa convincingly real. The movie was somewhat dark and moody but showed the acting chops of Brad Pitt and Tommy Lee Jones. Overall a great movie but not something everyone would enjoy.
