‣EPISODE 24: Ad Astra & Tolkien

Brad Pitt is blasting off into space in search of his father in the space-travellin’ Ad Astra. Drawing comparisons to not just First Man, but also Apocalypse Now, this is a film that’s got everyone talking. But why settle for anyone else when Nick’s right here to give his take on it? If you want something more down to (Middle) earth, Tolkien is our to-rent review for this episode. The film tells us about the early of the titular author, and how his experiences inspired him to write The Hobbit and The Lord Of The Rings. As always, there’s also the latest movie news, box office and rental charts, and our Take Five movie quiz.
