The Cosmonaut (2013)

*****Way Way Way Too slow to the point i decided cutting my eyelids off would be more interesting

[3/10 · 31 August 2013]

Dear god what happened here? i read up about it how 4000 people helped fund the film and all the different locations the story sounded interesting the actors looks plausible a done deal welcome to Hollywood..Err not quite! i sat down with my wife and as we don't watch that many films now a days as we watched them all years ago i thought this sounds a decent film, so on it came with an Italian guy speaking in Italian good job my wife is Spanish as she translated it all, what he was saying sounded interesting and after what seemed like a year before he stopped talking and the film started (He talked way too long), we watched & we watched & we watched there was one thing missing any signs of movement? it was just actors talking and talking and not an ounce of action? i mean i didn't expect a Die Hard film as it was never going to be one but when actors are basically just talking and talking and there is nothing interesting happening..THEN it happened a shot in the woods where a return module/rocket with one man inside had just landed it was red hot it had just entered the earths atmosphere so you couldn't go near it until it cools down fire all around it BUT WAIT! an actor just opens the side hatch with his bare hand? Maybe he was from another film like Iron Man and he has super strengths & cant feel any pain? then there is the point they are all supposed to be Russian and yet are clearly English! it lost a lot of interest from me when they made this decision and they should of had Russian actors either dubbed over or subs it just wasn't original for me! i wanted it to be so much more i was screaming at my TV "Come on guys don't let me down" but they did the film failed in a way i suppose "Shot down in flames" comes to mind! & this is a real shame! simple "Attention to details" would of made this film so much more realistic? the music was lovely in the films and the locations too but for me although the actors where really good the mistakes made it too Amateur so i would only give it a 3/10
