Right, well running at a staggering 15 minutes, of course it is rather limited what could be squeezed out of a short film such as the 2012 short film "Asternauts" from writer Raven Burnett and director Marta Alicia Masferrer. But still, I opted to sit down and watch it, as I hadn't already seen it, and also because its cover was actually interesting enough.

And actually "Asternauts" have very, very limited contents in terms of a storyline. So yeah, you shouldn't go expecting a whole lot here. I actually did expecting writer Raven Burnett to deliver just a tad more than the next to nothing that was presented in "Asternauts".

Sure, the production value and the visual presentation of "Asternauts" was good, no doubt about it. But the total lack of anything interesting in its story department made for a very pointless endeavor of sitting through these 15 minutes. Actually, the movie just starts and then comes to an end, and without having delivered much of anything.

The acting performances in "Asternauts" were actually good, despite of the limited screen time the actors and actresses had. But there definitely were some solid performances here, and they carried the movie quite well, making it bearable to sit through the pointless story.

My rating of the 2012 short film "Asternauts" lands on a bland five out of ten stars.
