The Astronaut's Wife Reviews

A strikingly unremarkable picture that starts with an unoriginal idea and ends with a cheap conclusion designed to prompt a sequel (although it's unlikely this movie will be successful enough to warrant one).

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 26, 2023

"The Astronaut's Wife,'' heavy on melodrama and skimpy on substance, is light years too long to engage audiences. And Depp, a talented actor with some great films to his credit, seems lost in space in this unfortunate vehicle.

Very entertaining, stylish, glossy-looking.

The Astronaut's Wife is ridiculously derivative.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 1, 2000

the movie is essentially an update of the 1958 drive-in classic "I Married A Monster From Outer Space"... lumbers to a wholly predictable conclusion...

Take this as hard evidence that movies without advanced showings will not always be totally worthless.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 1, 2000

It's definitely not capable of being rescued.

If the movie is a disaster on the writing and directing levels, at least most of the performances are strong and effective, and on a technical level, it is often impressive.

Houston, we have a problem. It's called The Astronaut's Wife.
