When they have only been on Mars for 18 days, involved in a dangerous storm, the members of NASA's Hares III crew (Jessica Chastain, Michael Peña, Kate Mara, Sebastian Stan, Aksel Hennie) are forced to abort their mission and abandon the planet. Astronaut (Matt Damon) becomes stranded on Mars after his team assume him dead, and must rely on his ingenuity to find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive and can survive until a potential rescue. Bring Him Home !. Help is only 140 million miles away !.
Science fiction, adventures on the edge of survival and an intense drama of a man abandoned on an inhospitable planet with little chance of being rescued alive, give shape to this film. Based on the book: 'The Martian' by Andy Weir, this is a love letter to survival, serenity, patience and fight for live against the mosts dangerous circumstances. Ridley Scott stated: ¨this is a story of extreme survival, something like the science fiction version of Robinson Crusoe. Mars is not a particularly welcoming planet, its temperature varies between 153 degrees below zero and 22 degrees, the air is composed of 95% carbon dioxide, the soil does not have the necessary bacteria to grow anything, and water does not exist, just a form of ice. But the protagonist is a botanist, and he will try to find a way to make the soil of Mars fertile, although that will be only one of his problems¨. In addition, its almost absolute protagonist Matt Damon explains: ¨This enjoyable film is intertwined with the experience in loneliness of the protagonist on Mars and that of the team on Earth trying to find a way to solve it¨.
Despite the extremes of story, The Martian is an exciting and, above all, fun film in which there is dry humor and black humor everywhere. Displaying stunning interpretations from our main starring Matt Damon and features a good cast of great stars such as the actors playing the earth personnel roles: Jeff Daniels, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Kristen Wiig, Benedict Wong, Mackenzie Davis , Donald Glover, Sean Bean and space astronauts: Jessica Chastain, Kate Mara, Michael Peña, Sebastian Stan Stan, Aksel Hennie. Which we must add the wonderful and sensitive sonorous score musical by composer Harry Gregson-Williams. As well as the authentic luxury, and, colorful cinematography by cameraman Dariusz Wolski . The motion picture was competently directed by Ridley Scott, at his best and as stylish as ever. Scott has directed a lot of notable films, such as: ¨Someone to watch over me¨, ¨Blade runner¨, ¨Black rain¨ , ¨Legend¨ in which his visual style is impressive . And his speciality , is the historical genre, such as: ¨Robin Hood¨ , ¨Kingdom of heaven¨ , ¨Duelists¨, ¨Black Hawk down¨, ¨1492¨, ´Exodus¨, ¨The Last Duel¨, ¨Napoleon¨ and Sci-fi genre, such as: ¨Alien Covenant¨, ¨Prometheus¨, ¨Blade runner¨, ¨Alien¨, among others.
