No spoilers here. This is one incredibly hilarious movie, that also tugs at the heartstrings. You can read the synopsis and figure out what the movie is about, however I had no idea how deep it would go. I felt this movie. The ratings here are spot on. The actors, which I was familiar with half of them, really brought it, and I am all for movies with actors doing their all to get another job.
From the opening scene I was hooked! The story moves along with little down time. I had no idea what would happen, but turns out this was based on a book, which was based on a guy on a mission. I don't recommend many movies, but Come As You Are is a winner in my book. One of the best movies I have seen in a long time.
Ignore the bad ratings. There is nothing like a remake of the original Cat's, which debuted in New York in 1954. I think this one compares to anything Scorcese has done and forget, just for a minute, where this movie will be in 100 years. I am sure that there will be many many sequels spawned and since a 2.7 isn't a zero rating? Give it a try.
The moment I sat down in the theater, with plenty of room to move around, I was entranced by the overall experience. I didn't pay enough to see this masterpiece!
I want to thank the director and actors for delivering the one-two punch of an Oscar-worthy picture that you won't soon forget.
Cats gets a 10/10 from this cat.
Ad Astra is a really good movie. It's a really good movie because Brad Pitt is in it. It's a really good movie because TLJ is in it. It's a really good movie because the director takes the time to put us right there in space. It's a really good movie because it's more than an action flick: it's a movie about a guy who faces a dilemma. It's a father/son movie. It's more than a space movie. The movie moves at a great pace and the plot is evident.
Ignore those who trashed the movie. They were looking for something else, like an Ocean's 11 or a Thelma and Louise.
I have been watching movies forever. Ad Astra is a really good watch. You have to read between the lines...watch Brad's mannerisms...listen to him...
Clearly those who trashed this movie don't have those abilities. But 'tis the nature of today's generation.
10/10
