On November 22, 2015, I just finished reading the novel. Mark as want to see. Comments are: Points to
watch: 1. Is the narrative angle the first or the third, and if the latter is the case, how is the comical style of self-deprecation in the novel reflected in the movie? 2 In terms of plot choices, the arrangement of scenes for self-survival and team rescue, especially the content is similar to "Gravity", can a one-man show be more brilliant? 3 Can the visual spectacle reach "Gravity" and "Interstellar", and can the theme song surpass "gravity"? 4 Watched Lewis perform.
=========================================
06 Jan 16 Yesterday, I just finished watching the movie. Mark 3 stars seen.
1. The third-person narrative, the humorous style is mainly focused on Matt Damon on Mars, and the effect is very general compared to the novel. 2. In the plot, making potatoes, destroying plants by accidental explosion, going to craters, and team rescue are all important. Some theories of explanation are almost deleted, and the choice is right. Compared with the one-man show of "Gravity", this one-man show is of average weight, with only a few inner dramas. 3. I don't know the visual effects from the computer, but it should be possible to achieve a certain height when watching the storm and space rescue. 4. The soundtrack is very frustrating.

    The plot is compact, there is no deliberate turning point, everyone's behavior is very reasonable, there is no deliberate sensationalism, and almost all my lightning spots are avoided. highly recommended!

    Ridley Scott shot, the director will not be too bad. But the whole story turned out to be very hollywood, in fact, it was just a superhero movie. Matt Damon, as shown in the play, is just another Iron Man, even with the same humor. "Bring Him Home", who is his family? Every character in the story seems to have seen it in a superhero movie. This drama is not about "people", I believe it is more like a NASA commercial.

The Martian quotes

  • Vincent Kapoor: [Reading and citing from the panels that Mark put in front of the camera of the Pathfinder Mars robot] "'Are you receiving me? Yes - no.'

    [to Tim]

    Vincent Kapoor: OK, point the camera at 'yes'."

    Tim Grimes: 32-minute round trip communications time, all he can do is yes/no questions and all we can do is point the camera. This won't exactly be an Algonquin round table of snappy repartee.

  • Melissa Lewis: [from deleted scene] Where have you been sleeping?

    Rick Martinez: In airlock 2.

    Beth JohanssenChris BeckAlex Vogel: WHAT!

    Rick Martinez: It's the only place where I can sleep without anyone tripping me, so.

    Alex Vogel: Do you understand how dangerous that is? If one seal breaks you die.

    Melissa Lewis: From now on you'll sleep in Beck's room.

    Chris Beck: Where am I going to sleep?

    Melissa Lewis: With Johanssen.

    Chris Beck: Um, uh.

    [chuckles]

    Chris Beck: [Johanssen looks surprised]

    Melissa Lewis: Knock it off Beck. It's a small ship I know everything.

    Beth Johanssen: Are you mad?

    Melissa Lewis: If this was a normal mission you'd be breaking about thirty rules. But this isn't a normal mission.

    Rick Martinez: And a few world records too.. WHAT'S UP!

    [Shakes Beck's and Johanssen's hands]

    Rick Martinez: Your gonna leave me hanging? You're going to leave me hanging? Getting down in space?
