Smoreni Zmaj In the beginning it reminded me of "The Devil's Advocate", then "Rosemary's Baby" and Alien". It's a shame that mixing those cult movies resulted in unpresentable and mediocre SF drama... Even Johnny Depp could not save this failure.6/10

Python Hyena The Astronaut's Wife (1999): Dir: Rand Ravich / Cast: Charlize Theron, Johnny Depp, Clea DuVall, Joe Morton, Nick Cassavetes: Basically Rosemary's Baby from space without suspense. A space flight returns two astronauts unconscious. One of them eventually dies while attending a party and his wife electrocutes herself in the bathtub. Johnny Depp plays the astronaut and Charlize Theron plays his wife. After savage love making she becomes pregnant with twins. Joe Morton plays a former employee of the space station who attempts to warn Theron of what really took place. Theron is required to act suspicious until she gives birth to E.T and discover that her husband is a refugee from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Director Rand Ravich does his best to rip off Rosemary's Baby with Theron even getting a Mia Farrow haircut. Depp is in the John Cassavetes role where he is required to creep up and startle Theron at every opportunity. Joe Morton tackles the Maurice Evans role where he attempts a warning. Clea DuVall plays the ill fate sister whose biggest problem isn't her fate, but the reality that her career came down to this. Since this film seems to be ripping off Rosemary's Baby then I strongly recommend that film as oppose to this scare lacking piece of guck. Boring snore fest about as suspenseful as a commercial for laundry detergent. Score: 1 / 10

Robert J. Maxwell There's a little something for everyone in this tale of an astronaut, Johnny Depp, who has a blackout in space, comes home slightly different, and impregnates his wife, Charline Theron, and gives her two twins made of plasma or something.The general idea -- a brief unconscious period in space -- was done at least twice in the original "Twilight Zone" series, and both were an improvement over this ill-constructed and derivative junk, despite the lavish budget and rather good performances by the principals.Let's see. "The Astronaut's Wife" is almost a remake of "Rosemary's Baby". It's not nearly as well done because it includes some bits of business that are nothing but hoary clichés. Not they don't work. It's always shocking when a woman is alone, shivering with fright, in a dark room, and a hand reaches in from off screen and touches her shoulder, accompanied by a sting on the sound track. Clichés are usually effective. That's why they've become clichés.Turning from "Rosemary's Baby", with the alien things growing inside her, we can see the heavy hand of "The Omen." If you remember the crazy priest who tried to warn Gregory Peck about the plot and was pinned to the earth for his troubles, we have an extremely nervous and deranged black guy who plain disappears while trying to get his warning across.The ending -- in which Therone finally does her fake husband in, and he dissolves amid shrieks and a loud spasm of electronic noise -- has the electronic organisms, if that's the word, zipping into Theron herself, through her blue eyes. That's from "The Exorcist." Naturally, following the model of its forebears, the movie leaves open the door to a sequel, which I pray will never be committed to celluloid.I sat all the way through it just to make sure I'd gotten the ending right.This was written and directed by Rand Ravich. What writer Ravich had not already turned into a commercially oriented horror mess, director Ravich manages. He must have been weaned on television commercials because suddenly, and without purpose, we get enormous close ups of eyeballs and lips, especially Theron's lips. Don't get me wrong. Her lips are, well, inviting and her philtrum is exquisite. But it's all very much like a commercial for a brokerage house.See it if you must.

Missallen1234-196-350433 This movie had a lot of the common Hollywood formulas that would make any movie successful: a lot of sex, violence and death, attractive actors, even the magic Negro (Google it).However, it was lacking tremendously in certain areas. The acting was deplorable. I was shocked when I found out that Johnny Depp was commander Spencer. The storyline was awkward and the sex scenes were super awkward. The only positive thing I have to point out was the camera work. The soundtrack was strange too. They could have done so much better, but I could tell this was a relatively low budget film. Not anything I'll be looking at again.
