Premium Review The Astronaut's Wife (DVD): Ground Control To Major John (663 words)

Rating:

The Astronauts Wife is one of those movies that doesn't really gather any real moss on it;s release and as a result you're not really inclined to watch it at the cinema or pass it by on rental. It's one of those films that you'll watch when it comes on TV because it has recognisable faces in the cast. The alternative is that you ...

The Astronaut's Wife (DVD): Do they make films this bad?? (243 words)

Good god Charlize Theron is a hottie. I wonder if they grow them all this hot in South Africa? If they do, get me on the next plane. But I can only take so much of a good thing. Charlize sure ain't hard on the eyes. But even looking at her can be difficult when the movie is a terrible piece of crap. Sadly, that's the case here. ...

I wish I had never seen this film. I had actually wanted to see it at the cinema when it first came out, so I guess at least I should count my blessings that I managed to miss it until I had the benefit of a fastforward button. This film is slow, ponderous, cliched, and above all DULL. There really is nothing good that can be said for it. ...

Rating:

A psychological horror - wow! I'm hooked already, thats what it was advertised as, a blend of sci-fi/horror and starring Johnny Depp - albeit with dyed ginger hair. If for some strange reason you are planning on watching it then don't read any further! The loving relationship between our Johnny and Charlize Theron (his ...

Premium Review Do you REALLY know your partner?? (665 words)

Rating:

The Astronauts wife is a haunting love story mixed with cut throat horror. It rides a razor edge of terror, imagination and what could happen in the deepest reaches of space. Spencer Armacost ( Johnny Depp) is a courageous, honoured NASA astronaut who is married to Jillian ( Charlize Theron) who is a well respected teacher. This was ...

Premium Review The Astronaut's Wife (DVD): Adequate (256 words)
by alishas - written on 03/02/01 (Useful, 15 readings)
Rating:

This is not a terrible film, but certainly isn't Johnny Depp's best. It features good performances from the cast and the plot isn't bad. The main thing that makes it only an adequate film is a truly cringy script. Its attempts at emotion are corny, but this is nothing compared to the painful stabs at humour. At least with the ...

Premium Review Don't expect Alien or Species.... (231 words)
by sikim - written on 04/01/01 (Very useful, 47 readings)
Rating:

This movie is not your average sci-fi movie, it doesn't rely on deadly lizard-like monsters to scare you or big chase scenes to impress. The whole movie is about the two characters played by Johnny Depp and Charlize Theron, and the affect of an 'unknown accident' while Depp was on the latest shuttle mission. All sorts of strange ...

This movie is a kind of science/fiction/fantasy and thriller ,but it have some violence,and strong scene of sexuality so it's rate is R. In this psychological thriller, NASA astronaut Spencer Armacost (Depp) and his wife Jillian's (Theron) lives are propelled into utter dismay upon Spencer's return home from a space mission ...

This is an enjoyable movie.Depp and Theron are married and he is an astronaut about to go out to space on a mission. She's sad, doesn't want him to go... Something happens while he's out there, and you really don't have a doubt what it was if you've watched any x-files episodes.He comes back, there's a really intense love ...

Rating:

When i first heard of this film, i quite liked the pairing of Johnny Depp and Charlize Theron, but that couldn't stop this film becoming another stinker. It never really took off. From the time they got back from their mission into space, the story just seemed to drag on from scene to scene with the action and excitement never really getting ...

This movie is so-so, something that I would only watch when there's nothing else for me to do. The movie is suspensful enough but once the viewers manage to figure out where it's going, it's becoming a bit stale. I do feel that the movie is built upon from a very simple premises & therefore, there's only so much that it could go. ...

Rating:

THE ASTRONAUTS WIFE What a disappointing film. Johnny Depp is a favourite actor of mine and he was brilliant in Sleepy Hollow but this film really boggles the mind. Depps’ character and his partner are astronauts who go to space on a routine mission and end up losing ten minutes of time that can’t be accounted for by ...
