An
astronaut is accidentally left alone on planet Mars while his crew leaves
during a natural disaster. He learns to manage on his own as a botanist for
hundreds of days, while eventually he is able to communicate back home using
older technology from the 90’s.
Sometimes being
humorous, sometimes dramatic, The Martian explores the theme of survival on
planet almost extinct of useful natural resources, while dealing with
loneliness, sanity and the craving for hope. Matt Damon's performance will make
you care for what happens to him.
In the last act, his crew performs a stunning
rescue operation, and they are able to complete it successfully. The Martian is
by all means a scientific survival story set on a foreign planet, is
intelligent with dialogue, humor and camera shots, and it has not only
motivating tunes, but older disco tunes as well.
Directed by Ridley Scott, a
veteran regarding sci-fi’s, The Martian is the Interstellar(2014) or the
Gravity(2013) for this year. Unless you are craving for a more fantasy based
science fiction, which I will review very soon.
Rating: 8.0
