Out of this World

Rating: 7/10 (21 December 2015)

Imagine being the only person on the entire planet. And that planet is Mars! Matt Damon does just that in the incredible movie, "The Martian." He takes on the role as a stranded astronaut on Mars and is discovered months later after being presumed dead. Damon does an amazing job conveying so many emotions through this character even humor. It is a fantastic science fiction film supported by amazing special effects and graphics. It was such a cool movie and I really loved the funny moments that were created in such high pressure situations. Ridley Scott managed to take a seemingly out of this world (pun intended) concept and bring it to life. This film is fully deserving of it's three Golden Globes nominations and I know this is just the start of the recognition it will receive.
