A shout out to Joseph Conrad (and Mad Max). I would disagree on the best acting a bit. Liked his over the top in Seven Monkeys and Fight Club, but it was good to see him doing his work on the Brangelina breakup.

Visuals were beautiful and my wife stayed awake the whole movie!

I'm glad I went. Fewer and fewer movies I'm even interested in watching at home any more, let alone going to a theater. I was pleased to see that they have converted to reclining movie chairs and reserved seats at our local theater. A very sweet ride.

Warm regards!

I saw this as 2001 + Apocalypse Now directed by Terrence Malick. Pitt's narration I attribute to Malick. Of course, we have a Kubrick universe with a plot straight from Heart of Darkness,

For a fully homogenized film, it was good.

  ...this was a beautifully produced and decently cast and acted mashup of "2001" and "Apocalypse Now" with some bits of "Alien", Clooney "Solaris" and "Bladerunner 2049" thrown in as seasoning. Not sure I cared for what seemed to be its message that we are it in this part of the universe. Regardless, worth a visit to the cineplex.
