Electrifying but a bit disappointing.

by Annie_Crane Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 03 '00
Pros: The scenes were very well written and the plot all came together very nicely
Cons: It was less of a horror and more of a love story gone bad
If you are looking for a show that will grab your attention, then this is a must see movie. Johnny Depp plays one of his better roles yet and with Charlize Theron by his side these characters create a near believing experience that is literally...

Sucks

by fewy , Mar 05 '00
Pros: you can always watch species
Cons: too many to ist
This movie sucks. The acting isn't that great and the plot is dreadful. The action parts kick ass but it takes up only a little park of the movie.
I saw this movie because I didn't have anything better to do and I wish I could have done nothing....

It's just bad.

by Spikor , Apr 18 '00
Pros: --
Cons: Everything. Please, let this review be over quick... I don't want to remember the horror.
I wish I could write a better review condemning this film. I can't really explain why I hate this movie so much. My best guess is because it deceived me. I went to see it opening night in the theatres because the preview made it look interesting,...

Lost in Space

by LNieves3 , Aug 19 '00
Pros: Interesting premise, few witty lines
Cons: slow pace, bizarre camera angles
"Astronaut's Wife" never really gets off the ground.

Jillian Armacost (Charlize Theron) is an astronaut's wife, but when her husband Spencer (Johnny Depp) is involved in an accident in orbit, her life is turned upside-down. Though...

Acting aside, this is horrible.

by pooswife , Feb 28 '00
Pros: The New York apartment is really cool.
Cons: The writing does not help the plot.
Every weekend, my husband and I rent anywhere from three to five movies. They are split up into HIS, HERS, OURS. Normally, on a five movie weekend, they go like this: 2-HIS, 2-HERS, 1-OURS. His are usually, horror, slasher types, mine are of course...

Rosemary's Baby was a Great Movie

by deni9 , Feb 25 '00
Pros: Good acting by Charlize Theron
Cons: Bit of a wait for the payoff
So what's wrong with a "modern" Rosemary's Baby?? I enjoyed this movie - just for what it was, as it was. It had beautiful people (a gorgeous apartment) in a horrific situation and I bought into all of it. Johnny Depp's astronaut partner and...

The Astronaut's Wife

by CLKneeland , Feb 11 '00
Pros: Special Effects
Cons: A copy cat movie with no originality
I rent a great deal of movies, in fact, at Hollywood Video I am their best customer. I really enjoy movies. I watch all kinds from classic's to new releases. I think I have pretty much seen any movie that anyone can think of.

Last night,...

The Astronaut's Wife

by herbgirl , Mar 10 '00
Pros: special effects
Cons: end is very disappointing
Even though a friend warned me against this movie, I saw it anyway. Now I regret it. It seemed to fail on almost every level.

First of all, the plot was not very original. It seemed to be a mixture of several other movies with the overused...

Thrilling

by pegasus72 , Apr 10 '00
Pros: good story line
Cons: too many foreshadows
We rented the movie because we missed seeing it at the movie theater. I am glad we waited because with renting it we got to view it more then once. It will keep you in supense the whole time. It has twists and turns that will keep you wanting more. I...

Only For the Patient

by Truman2k , Mar 15 '00
Pros: Suspenseful; intriguing
Cons: Long-winded; conclusion too revealing
Your husband comes back from orbit and wakes in the middle of the night to listen to static on the radio. Strange? Indeed. What do you do when you discover that he has impregnated you with a little alien pet project? That is Charlize Theron's...

Great atmosphere... but surrounding what?

by mrbrown , Dec 18 '99
Pros: Charlize Theron's performance, great atmosphere.
Cons: No substance, lame conclusion.
New Line opted to not screen in advance for critics this
once-high-profile sci-fi thriller, but the film is far from the
flat-out disaster that decision would imply. In fact, there is a lot
of merit on display here, not the least of which...

Bad movie, says I

by TwelveMotion , Apr 06 '00
Pros: Cool space scene, neat idea, cast
Cons: Bad everything else, climax is bad, no resolution
I will write this without using the letter "H"

Movie starts very strong. Great space scene, a small one but it is very well done. The concept of it all is good, but it just kept getting worse. First everyone is dying you keep...

When a bad movie happens to a great performance

by mrbrown , Feb 22 '00
Pros: Charlize Theron's impressive performance; great atmosphere.
Cons: The story makes not one lick of sense.

Not Enough Depp-th

by SevenCattys , Feb 13 '00
Pros: A little bit of Johnny Depp is better than nothing.
Cons: Lousy movie.
I was really disappointed with this one. Not enough DEPP to make up for a slow, draggy, boring movie with absolutely no depth.

THE ASTRONAUT'S WIFE is surely the right title for this movie. It seems to me about 75% of the film consists of...

Such potential all down the drain...

by blakex , Dec 09 '99
Pros: Charlize Theron
Cons: Horrible Ending, just plain stupid.
During a routine operation repairing a satellite in space, Spencer Armacost (Johnny Depp) and Alex Streck (Nick Cassavetes) lose contact with the shuttle for two minutes when a small explosion occurs. What happened during that time is unknown.
