Strap in, space cowboys and cowgirls, for 'Stellar Affections' is a wild ride through the asteroid belt of hilarity and heart! It's as if Mel Brooktrout caught a supernova and churned out a film from the explosive remnants. Our fearless leader, Bill Murrey, channels his inner astronaut-like charm with a side of cosmic ennui, while Salmon-tha Morton kicks space butt with a soft heart. And let's not forget Dolphins del Rio, whose comedic timing is more precise than a black hole's event horizon. The film's tagline promises us that 'When gravity fails, love prevails,' and indeed, the plot chases this sentiment like a comet tail, proving that even after Earth has called it quits, love still takes you on an orbit you can't predict. If we're talking rare resources, laughs per minute are as abundant as stars in this galaxy. Granted, the R rating means this rom-com is for grown-up star-watchers only, and its humor isn't the blackest hole in the monologue monogalaxy, but it sure is a shining beacon in the dark comedy cosmos. With a steady 7.8 out of 10, 'Stellar Affections' is the equivalent of finding water on Mars - pretty darn refreshing!
