Good Sci-Fi Flick!

Rating: 7/10 (25 March 2017)

Matt Damon and Jeff Daniels star in Ridley Scott's 2015 sci-fi film based on the novel. This focuses on Mark Watney, an astronaut/botanist who gets stranded on Mars after an accident occurs during a mission and he's presumed dead. Mark uses his mathematical and scientific skills to survive as well as communicate with Earth. Soon, the people around the world learn he's alive and scientific experts try endlessly to rescue him using their skills. Daniels (Dumb & Dumber) plays Ted Sanders, the Head of NASA and Jessica Chastain (Interstellar), Kristen Wiig (Bridesmaids) and Sean Bean (Goldeneye) co-star. This is a good sci-fi flick that sort of shares a similarity with "Cast Away" with dramatic, humorous and tense moments. Damon is great in it and the visuals are amazing. I recommend this.
