Slow, but atmospheric. I loved it and I think back to it often. In the woman-losing-her-mind subgenre of giallo.
I can appreciate the effort that went into creating a unique story and plot because this was very weird. It was a mix of interesting and kind of confusing and boring, at times it really peaked my interest and I got into finding out who she was. Almost instantly it would go back to being like I just need it to end, that being said at least it's a giallo with a different storyline. The ending was cool it didn't really tie anything together for me though.
Pointless boring repetitive no-burn NOTHING BURGER. Waste of time, not recommended. Is there a different cut where the astronauts are psychiatric nurses? That's what wikipedia says the ending is, which would be a better ending but would not save this snooze fest, but that's not the ending I just watched. Movie looks nice I guess.
I like this movie. It looks cool and it feels cool. I love all the lunar blues. But it never really coalesces in any kind of meaningful way.
I really wanted to find out why the whole conference room looked at her. Confused with the ending as well. However there were some cool shots
