Ad Astra

If my dad, who loves every movie (especially sci-fi), says it is a bad movie, then it is probably not a great movie. The acting is fine and the first half is pretty good, but the story just goes nowhere. I do understand that it is more about Roy’s emotional journey, but it doesn’t make up for how underwhelming the resolution is. This could have been based around any career outside of space, and it would’ve been the same movie. Also, the soundtrack is mostly ambient space sounds, which makes every ‘powerful’ scene so underwhelming.
