- RipLinesMan24 avril 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 avril 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.
- Jesse27 avril 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.
- GrimeFiVideo17 septembre 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.
- jackmeat24 avril 2025My quick rating - 5.2/10. In Ash, Eiza González wakes up alone on a distant planet, and it’s immediately clear she’s having a very bad morning. No coffee, no clean socks, and oh yeah—her crew has been brutally murdered. Welcome to space horror, where the silence is deafening and the plot’s holding on by duct tape and alien goo. Directed by Flying Lotus (yes, the musician—and apparently now part-time intergalactic tour guide), Ash boldly steps into the void of sci-fi horror with a heavy nod to The Thing, minus the creeping paranoia and clever ambiguity. Instead, we get a fairly routine “humans find alien tech, everything goes sideways” setup, with far fewer flamethrowers and far more artsy flashbacks. Riya (González) does a decent job playing the lone survivor trying to CSI her way through the carnage, though the script doesn’t give her much to work with emotionally—unless you count staring blankly into the void. Occasionally, she remembers to be terrified. Occasionally, so do we. Iko Uwais pops up, giving fans of The Raid a moment of excitement, only to remind us he’s not here to fight twenty guys with a wrench this time. He’s underused, underscored, and underwhelming—but hey, he looks great in space gear. Visually, Ash is all over the star map. Some scenes feel richly textured and atmospheric, making you wish the whole movie looked like this. Others feel like we dropped into a mid-tier sci-fi video game cutscene from 2011. The effects are uneven, like someone spilled space glitter on an indie film budget. Where the movie shines (or flickers, anyway) is in its final flashback—ironically the only flashback that truly earns its runtime. It’s emotional, well-shot, and tonally what the rest of the movie could have been. Unfortunately, to get there, we wade through recycled dreamscapes and “Wait, did we see this memory already?” territory that starts to feel more like déjà meh. The score, of course, is bumping—Flying Lotus knows how to create a vibe—but even pulsating synths can’t force tension where none exists. The horror is more suggested than shown, and while restraint can be a virtue, here it just feels like the film forgot it was supposed to be scary. Still, there’s something promising lurking beneath the cosmic dust. Lotus clearly has an eye and ear for atmosphere, and with tighter editing and a story that doesn’t treat flashbacks like popcorn, his next film might stick the landing. For now, Ash is space horror-lite: visually interesting at times, occasionally creepy, and mostly content to orbit around better films rather than boldly going where no director’s gone before. Bring snacks. Maybe caffeine too.
