Review of Martian (2015) by Trent K — 18 Feb 2016
I thought this was great, all held together by a central performance from goold old Matt Damon which is heartwarming, funny and believable. It's shot mostly in the style that we're accustomed to when watching the live feeds from space walks and landings which as a result lends a real authenticity to proceedings.
It also goes pretty heavy on the science, I've no idea if any of the things are possible but it all seemed movie-credible enough for me. My only minor gripe would be the complete wasting of Kristen Wiig as an actress who is basically just cast in various skintight suit dresses with nothing to say, very odd.
As I say though a really fun blockbuster overall.
