I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
I saw it on TCM, but it's available on DVD. Also on YouTube, though I'm not sure if the version that's posted has English subtitles.Orpheus wrote:LV, that looks awesome and I love you for posting it. Where can I view it?

So refreshing to see a movie that is both intense and positive -- it's about problem solving, ingenuity, and teamwork -- no more, no less. Damon is great, Ridley Scott is at the top of his game. It's very faithful to the book -- all the Damon/Mars stuff is basically verbatim, and all the Earth/NASA stuff was executed better on film.
Kristin Wiig is such a one-note actress, and I just don't like Donald Glover, but those are the only negative comments I could come up with.
Wish there were more mainstream movies like it.

that is not an excusetragabigzanda wrote:To be fair to Matt Damon and Ridley Scott, that was the exact tone of the book. I understand if it wasn't your thing, but it was very faithful to the text -- Whatney even says "I'm gonna have to science the shit out of this" in the book.VinylGuy wrote:tragabigzanda wrote:Saw The Martian tonight.

Man, it was a letdown for me. I didnt bought damon's character not once; and the dialog seemed to be fill with one liners all the time. Every actor seemed to be doing a role from another space movie we all saw.
And yes, wiig and glover were awful.
