Not what you would expct

Rating: 7/10 (25 October 2015)

Based on the novel of the same name 'The Martain' failed to meet the expectations and plunged in the hype of promotions.
The novel deploys a fun and hilarious (which the movie makers forgot to take into account) Mark Watney on the journey to Mars where he is stuck for years and uses his brilliance to remain composed and sane and survive in deep space. It seems as if the movie makers were so focused on filming each and every scene of the novel that they neglected the crucial elements of the fiction. It'S a fiction damn it!
Direction was lousy.When it comes to casting I guess the director lost his mind. Actors seemed monotonous and in despair where the novel is based on hope that nothing is impossible. No peeve in the graphics department, they were awesome.
All in all, movie is only a one time watch and that too only if you haven't read the novel like me. If you have, you might get disappointed.
