Review of The Martian (2015) by The A — 09 Jun 2016

Kind of like an apollo 13 set in the future on mars instead of the moon. Personally I like apollo 13 better, but this was still good if not nearly as realistic. This is a great family action movie. At first I found matt damons character annoyingly positive and thought there was way too much space jargon.

Also the movie leaves out a lot of details of day to day and just focuses more on the rescue instead, which itself at times seems too perfect and unbelievable. As it goes on tho, it def get better and the stakes get raised.

The tension toward the end is palpable. Movie shows that a postive attitude, ingenuity, and determination will get u anywhere and out of anything.
