- RipLinesMan24 de abril de 2025Ash wants to be Event Horizon (1997), but only captures the shadows, not the fire. Eiza González leads as Riya, a survivor in the aftermath of a massacre aboard a distant space station. She brings conviction, but the script drifts — more quiet than tension, more mystery than menace. Aaron Paul’s Brion is watchable, but underwritten, and while Iko Uwais brings intensity as Adhi, his presence is more setup than payoff. The supporting cast — Kate Elliott as Clarke and Beulah Koale as Kevin — do what they can, but the film’s rhythm never quite locks in. Compare that to Event Horizon, where Laurence Fishburne’s Captain Miller and Sam Neill’s Dr. Weir tear through grief and cosmic dread with urgency. That ship felt cursed — alive. In Ash, the station is eerily quiet, but rarely threatening. The horror comes in waves, but never crashes. Both films ask: what happens when you wake up too late to stop the nightmare? But only one feels like it stares back. Ash aims high, but in space, drifting is still drifting.
- Tom Cooper27 de abril de 2025Crappy CGI. Crappy script. Crappy plot. Crappy colour palette. Crappy budget. Does everything have to be in red/blue/green/purple lighting? (We get it, it's scifi) Don't they own normal white lights anywhere on this space station? Wake me up when something interesting happens.. 💤😴 People comparing this to event horizon or dead space mustn't have seen either. When the director calls himself "flying lotus" you should know it's going to be absolute crud.
- GrimeFiVideo17 de septiembre de 2025A visually GORGEOUS movie with a fantastic soundtrack. Unfortunately the great is overloomed by an incredibly boring plot and script. It's hard to care about any of the characters, and the story is spoonfed to the audience through flashbacks. I feel like a lot of potential was here, and I almost wish this had been a Sci-Fi movie instead of a Sci-Fi Horror flick given how much of a vibe the movie is.
- Jesse27 de abril de 2025Ash is a clear case of style over substance. Visually, it's impressive at times, and the action sequences show flashes of potential. But the film crumbles under the weight of a weak script, uneven direction, and sluggish pacing. It tries to build a tragic, mysterious atmosphere around its characters, but never earns it, making the emotional beats feel hollow. At best, it's a pale imitation of films like The Thing and Event Horizon and a reminder of how much better those movies are. If you're looking for real tension or smart storytelling, look elsewhere.
- Kevin Ward1 de julio de 2025Ash is a frustratingly uneventful slow burn that finally wakes up in the final act—just in time to salvage some of the face-melty, ooey-gooey sci-fi horrors it spends the first hour and change only teasing through fleeting, non-sequitur flash jumpscares. Flying Lotus wears his influences loudly, but instead of synthesizing them into something fresh, the film mostly drifts through a haze of familiar beats without any urgency. The script somehow manages to be both incoherent and entirely predictable, which is almost impressive in its own way. Eiza González and Aaron Paul do what they can, but the film gives them little to work with. I was, however, impressed with how much effort they put into hyping the film and supporting each other. Before the screening, they were engaging with fans; during the film, Paul was whooping and hollering at every big moment—even when the audience wasn’t. Throughout the screening, he and González exchanged reassuring hand clasps and encouraging shoulder squeezes. Apparently longtime friends, their enthusiasm was infectious and made me wish I had enjoyed the movie more. At least Flying Lotus’s score absolutely slaps, and the visuals—especially given the budget—are commendable. If only the film had matched its ambition with more substance.
