Ad Astra

I've only seen a few of James Gray's films, with Lost City of Z being his best....until now. Ad Astra is great, and if you've seen the trailers check it at the door. This is nothing like the trailers, in fact this film is hard to talk about without spoilers. Not that any moment will ruin anything but it is best to go in blind and let this journey unfold before your own eyes. It delves into human psyche, cover ups, and even has a scene with killer *redacted. The trailer looked rather bland but this film is a trip, in fact as far as the recent space exploration films of the past 6 years, this is easily the best. This is possibly the best since 2009's Moon.
