Synopsis
Ad Astra (2019) is James Gray's science fiction drama you can watch online on iFILM. Brad Pitt plays astronaut Roy McBride, a man so calm his heart rate barely flickers in free fall. The space here is really a mirror.
Strange power surges are rippling out from the far edge of the solar system and battering Earth. The source traces back to an expedition that vanished twenty years earlier, led by Roy's father, long presumed dead. Now the agency sends Roy toward Neptune to learn whether his father survived and whether he is the one putting all life at risk. The farther he travels, the less the journey is about hardware and the more it is about an abandoned son. Tommy Lee Jones plays the father, with Donald Sutherland, Ruth Negga and Liv Tyler alongside.
Gray pulled off something rare: a hushed, almost meditative odyssey where a lunar shootout sits beside long stretches of silence. Cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema frames the void so it presses down on you. Stream Ad Astra (2019) online on iFILM.
