Nice idea but..disappointing

Rating: Null/10 (4 September 2016)

This is partially a Robinson Crusoe story for 21 century.. A man all by himself trying to survive. Or Castaway in which Tom Hank talks to a pair of ice skating shoes.
And partially a repeated story about travel to space. This movie is full of technical errors such as: 1. How do the earth people instantanuously communicate with the Martian when it should take the light about 4 min to get there and 4 min to come back. This seems such a basic error that it makes you wonder if Ridley was in sound mind when he made this movie.
2. How does the Martian ( Mat Damon) get a spacecraft and fuel to lift from Mars. Didn't the main space craft rocket leave Mars without him? Maybe they had taken two spacecrafts and twice as much fuel to Mars with them which we know is not true.
3. Isn't Mars more hostile then they show in the movie?
Etc.
