Excellent!

Rating: 10/10 (12 November 2015)

This movie exceeded expectations. When a movie is set in space, and there's mainly 1 character, I usually assume that it will be a very LONG movie with very little action. That was not the case here. There are so many witty lines, plenty of plot, and action going on other than just on Mars. Other than a few curse words (which were appropriate for the situation), and 1 nude back scene (to show the weight he lost), it was also movie that is appropriate for older children. The Martian is different from any other "Lost in Space" type movies. The characters all have great chemistry together. It includes romance, jaw-dropping suspense, and ends beautifully.
