Our story revolves around a space engineer whose father embarked on a mission to Neptune 20 years ago in search of extraterrestrial life. The movie follows our protagonist as he attempts to reconnect with his father, taking us along on this visually stunning and emotionally charged journey.\n\nFirst and foremost, let me say this: don\u2019t compare this 2-hour movie to films like The Martian or Gravity, which I\u2019ve previously recommended here. This movie explores a very different kind of narrative, steering away from survival stories and instead focusing on an introspective journey. The entire story unfolds with the main character at its core, and the film\u2019s visuals are simply breathtaking. Could the story\u2019s structure have been better? Absolutely.\n\nIf you\u2019re into space-themed movies, this film will likely satisfy you. But if you\u2019re looking for tension-filled, action-packed sequences, you might want to skip this one, as even Brad Pitt\u2019s phenomenal performance won\u2019t be enough to hold your attention.\n\nMake sure to watch this movie in the highest quality possible to truly appreciate its stunning visuals.
