Dennis Harvey Variety You'll wish you could project yourself into a different entertainment dimension while slogging through "Astral." Nov 23, 2018 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times "Astral" gives fans of American cable TV dramas a chance to hear some familiar actors speak in their natural English accents. Beyond that, this high-toned genre exercise is low on novelty - not to mention jolts. Nov 21, 2018 Full Review Norman Gidney Film Threat Astral is a mediocre supernatural thriller at best. We have a script that really needed a few more things wrapped up paired with a thesis that is bluntly dismissed in favor of an easy conclusion. Rated: 5/10 Jan 2, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Jeffrey P Interesting subject matter, astral projections, but it felt like it went off the tracks and the ending was unsatisfactory. Still, it did better than other similar films by not trying to do too much. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/12/23 Full Review Chris D This movie moves a little slowly developing the story. It's also missing a conclusion. The movie ends where the climactic scenes would typically begin. Feels more like a pilot episode for a supernatural show about college kids... Or, maybe I should say ANOTHER supernatural show about college kids. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/09/23 Full Review Shayla S Soooo boring and slow... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/15/22 Full Review Audience Member One of the worst movies ever, so bad I had a laugh after. An absolute embarrassment to the genre. Not suspenseful. Terrible acting. Holes in the plot. If I was in the theater I would have literally brought rotten tomatoes with me. Worth watching if you enjoy getting mad for fun! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member The only reason why I can't give this movie a 5 star is because of the lack of explanation as you move through the film. Since I have studied astral projection it was easy for me to understand but I don't think it would be as easy for someone who doesn't understand the principles. I do not think this is a movie for people that like the hack them up or bogie man horror films. It's a slow burn that makes you truly think about it. Frank Daillane is absolutely perfect for the character of Alex. His acting is always spot on. His character is both lost a curious. Which may not be the best combination for a person. Plus Daillane is just a beautiful soul and is always fun to watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I like the premise. With a good cast, I particularly enjoy the lead, probably the most enjoyable part was his acting alone. The spooky scenes were brief but effective, to me at least. I give it 4 stars for the plot and the lead acting alone. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
