Jupiter Ascending Ratings & Reviews
- cyberbillpDecember 18, 2025Sometimes movies get dogpiled when they don't deserve it. This is one of those times I believe. Jupiter Ascending isn't a terrible movie at all despite what the critics say. It's pacing is a bit off. It's simutaineously wildly rushed and overly long. The plot blows along without the development it needs, and it goes on and on. BUT, it's entirely enjoyable. Mila Kunis is top notch and Channing Tatum gives her a good counterpart. I wish this were a three part series of films, where each of the siblings would get an episode. They could have fleshed out the plot a bit. Anyways, I really like it a lot. Just like Valerian, and John Carter, it's a classic action sci-fi epic. Can't go wrong with this one, even if it is a bit long with a compressed plot.
- RichardOctober 19, 2025This movie had wild potential: space dynasties, flying boots, reincarnated royalty and Eddie Redmayne whisper, screaming like he’s allergic to volume control. Mila Kunis plays Jupiter Jones, a janitor turned space empress, while Channing Tatum skates through the sky as a half-wolf soldier. It’s bonkers, bloated and bursting with lore, but it never quite lands. The Wachowskis built a massive universe, but crammed it into one film. Instead of letting the story breathe, they rushed through exposition, plot twists and bee based royalty detection. The cast tried, Kunis was charming, Tatum committed, Redmayne went full space opera, but the tone swung from melodrama to camp without warning. Studio interference didn’t help. Delays, re-edits, and a ballooning budget left the final cut feeling compromised. The marketing sold sleek action, but audiences got philosophical chaos. It flopped at the box office and any sequel plans vanished into the void. I streamed it, stayed for the chaos and still kind of liked it. It’s flawed, but ambitious, a beautiful mess that deserved more. Into the Plex library it goes, as a monument to missed opportunity.

- tellumMay 29, 2025Mila Kunis was once asked to explain the plot of this movie. She could not.

- Hitmann21May 3, 2025Not good. So much exposition and every plot hole is explained with an ex machina. My soul feels like it was just graped.
