Adapted from Jaroslav Kalfař’s novel, the film features Sandler's character hallucinating an alien creature offering marital advice, while his wife, played by Carey Mulligan, is left with little to do. Despite some visually striking moments, "Spaceman" ultimately falls short in delivering a compelling exploration of space and human emotions, leaving Sandler adrift in a lackluster narrative.
