What an awesome movie this was

Rating: 10/10 (5 October 2015)

I'm not a critic who tries to compare the book to the movie. Just a frequent movie goer who simply decides if I enjoyed the Show. And I really enjoyed this movie more than any other movie I have seen in a long time. There were many reasons to love the show. I loved the humor included in the script. I went expecting this to be like any other sci-fi movie, but it really was much more. I loved the characters, I enjoyed the beautiful martian scenery, I enjoyed the mystery of not knowing how they would solve each challenge. I enjoyed the suspense and I found myself crying in the end. And so was most of the theater as well. IT is a movie I will watch over and over again, and make part of my DVD collection when they issue it. As pure entertainment I did not find anything I did not like about this movie. The emotional ride Whatly took us thru as he went from the joy of success to the agony of defeat, or another challenge made this movie entertaining the whole way thru. A+ all around
