Humorous and Interesting

Rating: 8/10 (18 June 2017)

This movie was different from what I expected from watching all the other futuristic space-sci-fi movies. I would say it is more realistic than other space movies, but still, its science fiction. This movie does focus more on the humanly aspects of survival and isolation than technical and scientific aspects. And this also does make the plot a little contrived and the heroic behavior of the characters and the happy ending is pretty predictable. (Although its also allows it to have some amusing scenes that I enjoyed.) However, it is entertaining to see how he survives in such harsh conditions of the huge planet of mars, and how the contact with another human lets his life go on. This movie also illustrates the importance of a single human life. The visuals of this movie is very clean and grand like all futuristic movies, and it's fun to see the huge spaceships and the planet Mars.
