Synopsis: On Mars, a group of astronauts are strolling through the storm but astronaut Mark Watney, has been knocked off and claimed dead. The rest of the astronauts abandoned mars, not knowing that Mark is still alive. He woke up and found out he is alone and he is gonna have to adapt in order to survive on a planet where nothing grows. Back on earth, NASA discovered that Mark is still alive and they really gonna have to think big if they are to rescue him.

The Review: People always say they want to go to Mars, well The Martian is the closest thing they’ll get. It’s filled with hopes, science and survival. The Martian is Gravity’s (2013) twin. There is no Mark Watney like Matt Damon. His comedic performance is out of this world (literally)! This film will take you to Mars!
