Editing Analysis - Ad Astra

Ad Astra was a compelling space adventure that hold itself through magnificent visuals and great plot. My favorite part was when traveling to the moon was depicted as unglamorously as flying coach to LaGuardia. I would love to eat Applebee’s in Zero G’s. Visually impressive, narratively familiar, emotionally distant, but thankfully intellectually stimulating. Ad Astra is the best movie I’ve seen this year. Brilliant directing, cinematography, acting, and editing. I love the tender introspection in such a big story. The most “realistic” space movie I’ve seen, I loved the portrayal of the “near future”. The acting and sound editing & mixing was done well. The horrifyingly lonesome, grounded my realistic and emotionally loaded settings of it all was really harsh. One of the better space movies to come along in quite some time. I’ve heard it described as boring but I think you’d have to be boring to find it boring.
