At what level is The Martian screenplay in Ridley Scott's work?

In order to maintain high productivity, Lao Lei outsourced the script to other screenwriters. As a result, his works have been uneven in recent years. But his strong basic functions have brought many scripts that are holding back to the level above the qualified line, such as Prometheus and Alien Contract.

"The Martian" is extremely well done in its entirety. Explain that the script did not hold back. The three-line narrative of Mars, Earth and spacecraft gave Lao Lei an excellent stage to show his basic skills. It's a good script adapted from the original. But not stunning.

    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?
