Plexxor the Pretty Good reviewedJune 4, 2025
This story surrounds a man's struggle to be present, through unbearable loss, for himself and the ones he loves.
Burying himself in his work, where fear of death was a huge distraction for everyone else- was his escape from his own reality and true greatest fear.
This film is absolutely terror inducing. The astronauts, the flights, (the crazy horrifying noises during the flights!), the families, the guilt of being an astronaut and risking the lifelong pain you will almost certainly put your family through when you don't survive it all.
What a movie! Editing/timing was fantastic.
