The Martian was like watching the cool kids show off an average science project that their parents had made.

Overall a disjointed and underwhelming movie. Acting across the board seemed wooden & plain - swap the humans for puppets & some of the scenes set on Mars were like a Thunderbirds episode.

The wacky humour(?) parts were forced & unfunny.

While the nerdy components were very interesting they felt crammed & at times unnecessary.

The movie jumped around & made limited sense in parts.

"You can bring anything you want to Mars but unfortunately we only have room for 5 disco mp3s".

Matt wouldn't have run out of tomato sauce (ketchup) if he hadn't of used a gallon on one meal the idiot.

Some of the cinematography was nice & CG landscapes were well done, but like an alien face-hugger The Martian forces itself way too much upon the viewer.
