Quite possibly one of the most boring, bland, idiotic, and god awful movies I’ve ever seen. Instead of giving this a formal review of why I think it’s so trash, here’s 10 Sci-Fi movies I should’ve watched instead of The Astronaut:

1. Scanners
2. Frogs
3. Prometheus
4. Nope
5. The Blob
6. Repo Man
7. Videodrome
8. Zardoz
9. Mars Attack!
10. Killer Klowns From Outter Space

If I’m thinking about watching sci-fi, I’ll watch one of these. However, I will talk about The Astronaut a little more in depth. This movie is so slow to actually start going. Way too much set up for a very bad pay off. The ending might be one of the worst I’ve ever seen and it’s so frustrating. It’s trying to act like a big twist even though there was nothing good leading up to this. The CGI is awful too so that doesn’t help its case. The Astronaut basically has nothing going for it and it was just a wet rag of sorts. Rot in hell.

Nanggung se nanggung2nya. Plotnya super slow paced sampai pertengahan, tapi pas udah mau kelar malah diburu-buru banget di 20 menit terakhir. Eksplorasi misinya minim, flashbacknya kaga jelas tujuannya apa, dan aliennya bener-bener gaje parah. Satu2 yg masih mending cuma sound effectnya aja sih, sisanya kerasa kayak film yang nggak tahu mau dibawa ke mana. Sayang banget premisnya padahal lumayan
