Terrific visualization of a true rescue mission where everyone played their part.

Rating: Null/10 (9 December 2016)

First of all, it got nominated for 7 Oscars, so it must have something special in it right? It starts on the middle of a mission. Everything is going great and according to plan, when suddenly a storm hits the astronauts and Mark Watney (Matt Damon) gets separated from his crew. They did attempt a search for him but the situation prohibited them from spending too much time on it and so they presumed him to be dead and they returned home. But, he wasn't dead yet and he started making efforts to survive and he was doing great, occasionally hit by one or two bumps. When NASA finally got to know about his survival, they did all they can to put forward a rescue mission for him. The rescue mission is thrilling and it involves some intense decision making and unified cooperation. The last 20 minutes was particularly very intense. The scene when commander Lewis went out herself to rescue Watney and when he was coming to her and there was this anxiety that one single mistake could make him lost forever into nothingness could literally get goosebumps. A great film and brilliant acting by Matt Damon. He is just a treat to watch
