This movie was a visual success... it was breathtaking. But that's about it. For all the effort they put into it, they could not rise above a horrible story and, of course, Brad Pitt.
I will say this... Brad found the perfect movie for his talent. His character was basically a Vulcan, so Brad was perfectly in his element because he didn't actually have to act, which he can't do as it is.
Tommy Lee Jones, Donald Sutherland and Liv Tyler were absolutely not required in this movie... and it would have freed up more money for the studio to invest in a real story and a real lead actor.
I've read a book entitled Ad Astra. It isn't related to, but is far better than this movie.
