Rating: 8/10 (18 September 2019)

I went to see this movie in theatre's on release day completely by accident I actually went to see a different movie but missed the start time so just picked this movie simply because there was a line for it and I thought must be good if people are lining up for it and by the final act of the movie I was on the edge of my seat heart pounding at how things were gunna turn out and I left the theatre in aww of this movie completely forgetting that I came to see a completely different movie.
The story follows astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon) who is accidently left behind on the planet Mars by his crew mates who think he died during an accident caused by a sandstorm that forced them to abort there mission and evacuate the planet but after they have left the planet and began there long journey back to earth Mark Wakes up in the aftermath the strom left behind barely alive he takes shelter in the temporary base used for the crews brief time on the planet now alone with little food water and supplies and no way to get home he begins working on a way to survive till the next scheduled Mars mission in four years time.
The film is expertly shot by director Ridley Scott who is most well known for making the epic space horror movie Alien in 1979 the cast is perfect and Matt Damon gives one of his best performances to date.
I recommend this movie to any Science Fiction fan and fans of intense thrillers and survival story's you will not be let down by this movies stunning cinematography suspence and story.
