Of all the stories you've seen about astronauts coping with the aftermath of disaster..."The Martian" is the most relaxed and funny, and maybe the warmest.

The Verge

It's a $108 million dollar movie where Matt Damon says the only way he'll be able to avoid dying alone on Mars is to 'science the shit out of this.'

Common Sense Media

Damon's charm, humor, and gravitas make this smart, action-packed adaptation an all-around perfect film for families with curious, science-loving teens and older tweens.

Collider

For a movie that takes place on a barren planet where everything could kill its central protagonist, Ridley Scott’s The Martian is a lively, breezy sci-fi trip.

Rolling Stone

'The Martian, with a you-are-there script by Drew Goddard, works you over without a hint of dystopian doom in all of its bracing 142 minutes.'
