Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

minnu-forums First, this is menial budget movie . . . All the bad reviewers were more used to high budget fancy space genre movies. Ignore such reviews.Second, the plot of the movie runs on the lines of meta-physical monologue of the protagonist., which is quintessentially the very fundamental element of this genre. In most high-budget movies, to cater the broader audience, this element is generally faded out romance elements, human conflicts, moral paradoxes. Not in this. This strictly confined to meta-physical aspects of existentialism one faces when they are alone and divorced off the world. I could have given 10, but I am disappointed by the ending. Wish, there is more philosophical monologue in the end. That's the only disappointment of this film. In the beginning, the plot seems way too cliche. Please understand, its just setting stage for the character. If you could push through the part and involve meditative with the character, trust me, its a beautiful movie. Give it a try with your heart . . . It won't disappoint.

dukac_duki I thought it was a parody. Don't waste your time, the movie can't be more awful!

messie-54717 It tries to be philosophical, but falls short with unoriginal ideas and an overly melancholic monologue throughout the movie.It tries to showcase intense emotional and existential themes as seen well done in "Moon", but fails to achieve this between bad writing, bad directing and on some parts really bad acting. (I'm looking at you Luke Wilson)Lastly.. It tries to base the whole premise on a scientific breakthrough, yet none of the actual elements of science seem at all plausible or sane in the context of a mission to mars.I mean, disregarding the heaps of uninformative science-lingo, the fact that they are sending one man, alone, with what seems to be a basically unverified method of producing water, letting him work on it IN FLIGHT, and expecting him to (once again, ALONE!) start a Martian colony... is just a maddeningly non-scientific way of doing it.And what's the deal with his name... Stanaforth?! That's where you tried to be original?!

Michael Ledo The film amounts to a one man monologue audio book. It is a character study of astronaut engineer William D. Stanaforth (Mark Strong) who has different ideas about life and seems to not like Earth. While the film is made to look scientifically credible, it is not, nor is it meant to be. It is about man and his relationship with the universe, atoms, and life as seen through the eyes of one man, who I thought was a bit messed up with his own ego and misguided determination. But hey, where would we be without guys like this? Safe and sound in our own homes? Of course if everything went well on the mission, your film would be boring...so they might just as well had everything go correctly. There was a message to the film, which I missed, most likely because my own ego and misguided determination wanted me to.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.Note to self: If you got one guy in a script, give him personality.
