The Astronaut of God

Time: 1:02:58 - I thought I would give it a shot. A Romanian astronaut? Intriguing. Well, it got more and more boring by the minute, and more and more annoying with the badly synthesized voices. But at that particular moment we had a heavenly revelation: when we heard that the astronaut had a "luxurious" shoulder, we burst into laughs at this moron's stupidity. Of course, he meant a "dislocated" shoulder, but the moron's English was that bad :D :D And there were morons in this world who gave him some awards for this stupid garbage! (Of course, bad English is continuous throughout the "film".)

It's impressive how its bad. The lines delivered by the character doesnt impact, because he has a robotic voice so freaking annoying. By the end of the film i was thanking that was over. Also the title and the development of the subject is poorly made. The reflections are too blank.

The idea that God is 'up there' above the clouds or in some nebulous region of space pulling the strings is absurd. To be fair, the film does eventually get beyond 'God on a cloud' approach. But the decision to use speech synthesis is disastrous, making the narrator sound mentally deficient and idiotic in his profundities. Listening to a book via TTS becomes tiresome after 5 min, listening to this film for 70 min is unbearable. After sitting through the computer-generated "I'm OK". "What the hell", "Damn it", I had a great desire to see Tarkovsky's Solaris, which does a better job dealing with the angst of "Who am I?" in space.

In answer to Octavian Repede: the Creator and His creation are one. The renaissance philosopher Giordano Bruno was convinced that the entire universe was held together by erotic love. Love in all its variations ruled the world, from physical nature to the metaphysical heavens, from sexuality to heartfelt love of the mystics: it led either to the animals (sexuality), or to the intelligible, and is then called the divine.

Yep, some bad aspects in production but the idea of serching for a form of "God" in Space and unknown and beeing the first in Space, at the Dawn of the US Space Exploration is really great. Clearly an indie production, with great ambitions. Maybe a remake with a real big budget someday. But for a one man production, indie film, I applause.

Like other commentators i concur this is not watchable or listenable to. There are some weird space movies around, this is just plain forgettable.
