It's disappointing how much they cut out of his personal journey and replaced it with long sections of goofy gags. Those were ok, but not at the expense of character development. It did still feel indulgent in how long some scenes went.

Overall a good movie though. Just not as awesome an adaptation as The Martian was

I wanna see that cut. They definitely glossed over many of the major leaps forward both in the prep for the mission (how did they make so much fuel) and during the mission (learning the language was made out to be much easier than the book)

Currently reading the book. I love the "schoolteacher in space" thing; not that that is all there is to the book. It's also one of the best dramatic applications of partial amnesia I've seen.

No spoilers please.

Just got home from seeing it. It was gorgeous and a great story, but definitely some Return of the King vibes.

Awesome... So give us the director's cut it deserves. Don't even need to release the theatrical version anywhere else.

I loved the movie, it’s my favorite novel.

We better be getting a director’s cut on home media.

It’s still too long tbh. You could cut to credits at the point where he

And it would changes nothing about the ending except that it explicitly shows everything you could have extrapolated.

It was okayish, just saw in on imax.

I hate being a book snob, but thats how it feels here. So many things were rushed and yet the movie went on almost too long. It's like forgottable flick, one you stream some night with a phone in your hand, browsing memes while watching. I dont think it'll grip the viewer nor will many watch it twice
