It's nice to see Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones team up in a film once again since 2014's The Theory of Everything. While Redmayne gave an extraordinary performance that completely outshone his own co-star in their previous film, it is now Jones' time to shine here as…
LinusMxxSep 6, 2019Or The Theory of Airy Things. I’m as stunned as anyone to say I found this mostly old-fashioned fun. I wish it stuck solely to the balloon - none of the flashbacks work - but it mostly does and Jones is kinda great.
Brian TallericoNov 3, 2019Based on Richard Holmes' 2013 book Falling Upwards: How We Took to the Air, with a great deal of poetic licence taken, this movie chronicles the shattering of the world flight altitude record for a hot air balloon, which onscreen is an object of genuine magnificence. It was…

THE AERONAUTS is occasionally thrilling with some breathtaking imagery & stunts. But it can never fully recover from its quick pace that favors flashbacks making it harder to invest early with these characters. Felicity Jones puts in a strong effort but this one never fully…
Matt NegliaSep 12, 2019Fantastic Weather and How to Find It. Pretty fun movie overall with great performances as always by Redmayne and Jones. At one point this becomes a full on survival mission which becomes truly captivating. You don't want them to die, but you also want to make sure their…
Amanda the JediApr 19, 2026Çok fazla flashback olmasa daha iyi olurmuş.. Ayrıca o yükseklikte o hareketler yapılabilir mi şüpheliyim 🙂 yinede izlerken fazlaca daraldım yükseklikten dolayı 🙂

- Stoofman is "meh" onThe Aeronauts
It was good, just simply not something that I enjoyed, I liked the "colors" and the "overlays" but it was just a movie that I didn't really like, or no, it wasn't anything bad, nor something worth going crazy for
Gregory Dahms likedThe AeronautsReally entertaining flick; the most interesting aspect of which is the short amount of time the events unfold in.
Trevor Coyle likedThe Aeronautspretty intense actually. Setting the record or possibly finding love?! Double win. Informative too I guess.

Great movie.. inspired by real events
SYS YGreat movie. Go see it.
CBCraig BrooksA decent period drama with some uneven pacing. Felicity is great, but I found Redmane boring and uninteresting. The story is fine, if jumpy, but there were parts and characters that just felt completely unnecessary. I feel like this would've been better suited to a…

It was a great cinematic experience and the audio really popped in the theater. It was very climatical at the end.
SCShani Caffee StokesI thought it was great however my son and friend both fell asleep. Not sure if it was just a long weekend or they thought it was boring. But again I loved it.
LALou AgzAlthough it sometimes feels like it would be better suited as a mini-series, the intense sequences of danger, the equally talented and committed cast, and the inspiring story make this a worthy diversion.

It’s Jones who dominates the film

There’s a terrific 50-minute fan edit somewhere in The Aeronauts, but as far as the theatrical experience goes, half of it is more than worth your time, if you’re willing to tolerate the other half.

The best audiences for this thrilling confabulation may be younger ones: They’ll feel their minds expand with inspiration and be less inclined to deflate back to earth afterward. Somebody did something amazing back in 1862; The Aeronauts commemorates it with artifice, enthusiasm, and a smattering of the truth.
