Missed the mark completely

Rating: 2/10 (14 June 2017)

Man, this movie made me angry! It attempts to make the audience feel sorry for Matt Damon's character, but all I could think of was what a selfish bastard he is. He risks the lives of his former crew mates, makes them stay in space more than a year longer than they should have, and I don't even want to think of the financial costs, and all because that egoistic turd decided he wanted to stay alive (and then takes all the credit himself for being alive in the end). If he would have thought about anyone else than himself he would have killed himself! Some of his crew mates had families, for crying out loud, which he obviously did not care one bit about! So the failure of this movie is clearly that the message of hope, that one should never give up ("solve one problem and then the next" and etc.) is overshadowed by the fact that the main character is a stubborn, selfish bastard who obviously valued his life above those of others.
