Would you believe, it is NOT!!! Ridley Scott still got IT! I know alot of you, like me, had this mind set. Meaning, this movie is probably an amalgamation between Gravity (2013) and Interstellar (2014). IT IS NOT!!! Most of you had probably seen the trailer, so you know what the movie is about. I have already credited Ridley Scott for his great direction for this movie. Another kudos goes out to Matt Damon. Can this boy ACT! The transformation he goes through.... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « This movie believe it or not, gloss over HOW VICIOUS space, space travel, and planet exploration, are. Well, it does try to be "true" to what we know about all the above, and have to add, they did put whipped cream on it, to make it more "presentable". (eg, there is no way the movie director can express to you how, by know, Hermes would probably smell like gym socks/rotten egg because of all the astronauts living in it for such a long duration... Yes, this is applicable to the real International Space Station). Is this a concerted effort by the west to "get back" into the manned interplanetary exploration business? (eg inspire the next generation of space explorers) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « The Good. When they show what crop Mark Watney grew on Mars, I thought to myself, how does that crop solve the scurvy issue, and to their credit, it doesn't and they showed it. Kudos. Using the defunct Pathfinder to communicate with NASA is really REALLY a stroke of genius!! How remaining calm and thinking problems through thoroughly, a solution can usually be found (eg break problem into smaller problem. If you solve all the small problems, you solve the big problem. Hollywood finally gets that China is not the enemy, and can do things because it is the right thing to do. The Bad A bad storm can blow over the Launch Vehicle for Mark Watney mission and they knew this might happen... NASA sent the Ares IV launch vehicle to Mars, 4 years before the mission and is assure it will remain standing!!!?! The Ugly When Mark Watney said, he has "to science the shit out of this", he means if figuratively and literally.... So if it still is unclear to you, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE. My Two Sen. sorry to tell you the "thin" body was CGI

And here's why... Ronna Kress (Casting By) should be hung, for putting this cast together. Pre-Disney Marvel sold the movie license to major studios 20th Century Fox Fantastic Four: Doctor Doom/Victor von Doom, Human Torch/Johnny Storm, Invisible Woman/Susan Storm, Mr. Fantastic/Dr. Reed Richards, The Thing/Ben Grimm, Nova/Frankie Raye, Alicia Masters, Willie Lumpkin X-Men Mutants: [Agent Zero/Maverick/David North], Angel/Warren Worthington III, Arclight/Phillippa Sontag, Beast/Dr. Henry Phillip “Hank” McCoy, [Blob/Frederick J.

Jonah Jameson, Ben Parker, May Parker, John Jameson, Joseph “Robbie” Robertson, Gwen Stacy, Mary Jane Watson, Mendel Stromm, Flash Thompson, Allistair Smythe, Spider-Slayers, Miles Warren/Jackal Newline Blade What I understand from the deals are that if the above companies do not do anything with the movie property after a few years, Marvel/Disney get the movie rights back. After this movie, I forsee the movie right for Fantastic Four revert back to Marvel/Disney. Back to the movie They changed the origins At least the origins I am familiar with. (Closer to the Fantastic Four (2005)) I know the comics had been reboot, so maybe their followed the newly reboot origins and have to add, it is NOT good. The movie tried really REALLY hard to be cool and there lays the biggest probably, in trying so hard to BE cool, the opposite is was achieve. After the accident that produced their powers, they were brought to Area 57 (Alaska?) Again, not sure if this is in the new comics, after they got their powers, the military tried to weaponized them?... (How very American) Sigh Oh, another troubling issue with the movie, you know you are in trouble when you "care" more bout the main bad guy Victor Von Doom / Dr. Doom (Toby Kebbell) then you do the main good guy Reed Richards (Miles Teller). Again casting issue, Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm / The Thing?? Come on??!? This is BAD!! REALLY REALLY BAD!! You have to see it to believe it... My Two Sen i think this will lead to another "reboot" i hope they dont recruit Channing Tatum for it, coz i think he should have been Deadpool (feeling sad that Ryan Reynolds is going to spoil Deadpool)

CKFtNsQ78oI The movie itself highly reminiscent of WKW's "Ashes of Time". Instead of a straight adaptation, it delves on capturing the ambience or atmosphere aspect of the chinese folklore tale. You don't get the full picture of the story, just a glimpse of the Nie Yinniang story. To be honest, I couldn't make out what is at play beside the cinematography very pretty to look at. It's way too esoteric to decipher the direction it wanted to go with the movie. Maybe I'm not familiar with the source material to understand enough of the story. Abstract as it may of "Ashes of Time", bare minimum there are narrative arcs to give you a sense of what is going on. thanks for sharing, i like these visually rich movies but kena ada mood baru can watch one

At 6:40pm today, I was standing in front of the cinema, with tickets and snack. I entered the cinema and the trailers and ads came on. I was eager with anticipation. This is Twentieth Century Fox big gun for the Summer and they plunked down 200 Million into this!!! The movie started and... I really hate to say this, it is a dud... Why? In 1996, America was a likable bully, now... not so much. The Chinese product placement and actors (Angelababy) to pander to the Chinese audience. Obvious much... The new characters are so BLAH!!!! America now has a lady President... Wah, so progressive one... They forget women through history and now ladies holds the highest office in their respective countries, namely Hatshepsut Ancient Egypt 1507–1458 BC Wu Zetian Tang Dynasty Catherine the Great Russia Corazon Aquino the Philippines Angela Merkel German Chancellor (To name a few) And when American has a lady President, HOLD THE PRESS!!! (Sigh) Liam Hemsworth cannot pick a good role, if his life depends on it, PERIOD!!! They rest of the new cast are going through the motions! Jeff Goldblum is clueless here. Why the heck is Judd Hirsch back? It proves that even he has to pay rent... Brent Spiner is now the comedic relief... Really?? And the only one that actually got through this whole exercise with a little bit of dignity is Bill Pullman... If you want something like this to work, GOOD STORYTELLING IS KEY!! If the first and second arch is not BAD enough in the third arc they pulled a » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Eight Legged Freaks (2002) ARRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Bad Fox!! BAD FOX!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you think this would open the opportunity for Part 3, you are SOLELY MISTAKEN!!! This movie CHEAPENS the first one like nobodies business... My Two Sen... when do sequels do better than original ones? when will we ever even get good enough sequels?
