The Reel Review
Brilliant! With Ridley Scott at the helm, The Martian is one of the smartest, most realistic, and most visually-captivating science fiction films ever made – a compelling story of an astronaut (Matt Damon, in a career-defining role), who, stranded on Mars, exhibits amazing problem solving skills to overcome seemingly impossible odds to survive. Underscored by a strong supporting cast and a kick-ass soundtrack, it is funny, hopeful, creative and has a pulse-pounding finale that will undoubtedly spawn a new generation of aspiring astronauts. This is definitely one to see in 3D. An EMPHATIC A+
