THE MARTIAN | Oct 2, 2015 | Will compete as a comedy at the Golden Globes

[DAR]

Rated PG-13 for some strong language, injury images, and brief nudity.  130 minutes.

Obviously they cut down on the F bombs from the book

This looks pretty good.  Will definitely watch this in theaters.

Whelp, looks like I'm fucked today.

Just finished the book because I couldn't put it down. I have to go to work in two hours too!

I swear nothing keeps me awake more than when I've hit "that" point in a book, you know what I mean? I won't stop until it's done.

Loved "Prometheus", I even liked "The Counselor" even though it was hated by a lot.  "Exodus" was a mess.    So I'm happy he's back in Sci-Fi Again.   I'm excited cause I love anything involving space movies.   "Total Recall" remains my favorate "Mars" film.   "Red Planet" and "Mission to Mars" never did it for me.  LOL @ "Ghost of Mars, Mars needs Moms and John Carter".  Let's just say Mars hasn't been box office gold in the last 20 years.    I still think the trailer showed a little to much and it felt like "Intersteller" in some aspects but I'm there for this for sure.  Always Loved Matt and thought he was a more talented actor than Ben so I thnk he can pull a Tom Hanks and Will Smith here.

Chris Stuckmann is going to TIFF...I'm sure we'll get his review as soon as he watches it.

It's like...

A Nike commercial.

I think it plays at TIFF today

Could this be Fox's biggest hit this year?

Could this be Fox's biggest hit this year?

I think with Damon's name, I think it could be almost gravity like in box office numbers.

[kayumanggi]

Plus the reported "great reviews."

[FilmBuff]

Just got done listening to the audio book. It was damn good. Can't wait for this movie to come out!

Loved THE MARTIAN. Going to be a big hit for Fox and Ridley Scott. Great script and performances. Worth seeing in 3D.

 

Richard Lawson ‏@rilaws  now30 seconds ago

THE MARTIAN is fantastic. Nerdy, clever, beautifully built and cast, tense and thrilling. Plus Jessica Chastain does a lot of space #TIFF15

Leave your cynicism at the door. Feel like a kid at the movies again. Go see THE MARTIAN. Four stars. #TIFF15

Matt Damon is kinda perfect for THE MARTIAN: We feel his solitude and horror without the movie being bleak. Strangely fun movie. #TIFF15

 

Jason LeRoy ‏@Jason_LeRoy  2m 2 minutes ago

THE MARTIAN: A plucky Matt Damon wisecracks his way through Mars desertion. Feels like a summer movie. Only a tech awards contender. #TIFF15

 

Jordan Hoffman ‏@jhoffman  3m 3 minutes ago

I was wrapped up THE MARTIAN from 1st launch. Ridley, your PROMETHEUS sins are forgiven. #tiff15

 

Sam Woolf ‏@S_Woolf  5m 5 minutes ago

THE MARTIAN: 99% entertainment, 1% art, so a faithful adaptation. Jessica Chastain for M.O.D.O.K. #TIFF15
