Matt Damon - Space Pirate

Rating: 10/10 (30 December 2019)

What a brilliant movie. It is one of those films you can watch on repeat over and over and still enjoy just as much each time.
Matt Damon is in his element here. Combining good humour and some clever one liners with the sense of hopelessness and loneliness that comes with living on an entire planet on your own. His performance helps you believe you are there with him struggling in those harsh Martian conditions.
I personally love Interstellar when it comes to my favourite space related sci-fi movie of all time. But if Interstellar is a 10/10 the Martian is a 9.999999999/10. Terri would not agree with this statement as it is tough to split the two.
Decent book too if you have the time to read it. I'm hoping Andy Weir's other space themed novel "Artemis" gets the movie treatment too. Ridley Scott would do another amazing job directing that as he did with this one.
Give this one a watch folks and watch it again!
