The Astronaut of God

After 15 min I quit , couldn't watch more , the narrator is like a google translate voice - I couldn't stand it ! , same shoots over and over - I've seen moves made by students better then this one ! - sorry but try again

The idea of this film is simple: for some people, the search for god will never end, and the more they look, the more fanatic they get.

Bad acting, bad Physics, bad effects and a few English mistakes aside, the movie was quite good!

If you take this script and get a big budget movie, with Brad Pitt in the main role, you would probably see Oscars pooring.

Watched from begining to end, and these days so much unoriginal garbage out there, which you struggle to get half way through, let alone even get to the end.

In a way this is a little gem.

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.

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.
