    Awesome movie

    The Cosmonaut is original, sad and beautifully delivered Sci-Fi story of love and adventure. Pay attention and enjoy.

    BTW, if your are one of those who base their reviews on budget and CGI, you should really stick to flashy garbage from Hollywood.

    Boring! Don't watch even its Free..

    I can understand this is a mass funding project and they showing it for free and I should respect the producers and the director but I am not sure why 5000 involved people wasted their money and time after the vision of one guy.. the director who don't even understand what is directing.

    This movie is just awfully boring from start. After first 5 min I lost the track of what was happening on screen. It is so boring that if you have a sleep disorder you may want to watch it instead of taking sleeping pills.. this movie will indeed make you sleep.

    Movie should be entertaining, interesting and captivating. This is exactly opposite to that.

    Don't listen to those positive reviews wrote by their own team to market this crap..

    Director should be ashamed for wasting everyone's time..specially viewers.

    In the beginning of the movie they say.. you decide how much you want to pay to watch this movie.. Well.. You need to pay us.. The Viewers to watch this crap.

    You guys should sell Mars bars at the football game rather then making movies. Cause clearly you don't know how to make a one..

    Sad but beautiful piece of artwork

    While not what I expected to see, I liked.

    It is closer to poetry than to traditional film, and I expected more emphasis on the characters and the story.

    It's a beautiful job well done, in my opinion, despite a large sadness in its content, but I will not reveal details of the plot so I will say no more.

    Sometimes I feel like hard to follow considering the changes in the Timeline, which anyway does not prevent understanding of the work.

    Otherwise it's a movie out of the ordinary (as planned: crow-funding, Spanish production spoken in English and filmed in Russia, etc.).

    The places are very interesting and the environment, in my opinion very well done. It also has a good soundtrack.

    Really enjoyed this movie. Very thought-provoking, adult theme.

    "The Cosmonaut" was very well done, well acted and well thought out. It is not the the typical "Iron Man" blow up stuff movie, but was really good. Don't look for The Hulk to drop down and explain everything to you. There is a fair amount of beauty, magic, love and science here. It reminded me of Kubrick's "2001 A Space Odyssey", Demi Moore in "Ghost", and Bruce Willis in "The Sixth Sense". The adult situations and relationships are beautifully done. No campy stuff here. There are light- hearted moments, but much is of a serious nature. Training for space is a "no joking matter", for the Cosmonauts, and for their loved ones. I watched "The Cosmonaut" twice, and listened to the beautifully haunting music through the extended credits. Great job. I should really rate the movie a "9".

    Absolutely Stunning Visuals with an Intriguing Story

    Naysayers on here definitely are not lovers of film. This is not Hollywood. No hay ending. No over scripted dialogues. Just a beautiful masterpiece. The camera work alone was amazing. truly a crowning achievement of the independent film movement. a must watch for lovers of cinema and a must watch for criterion movie lovers.
