The Martian

The Martian is the last film of Ridley Scott, the famous cinema director and creator of other amazing films like Prometheus, gladiator, Alien or Blade Runner. 

I went to the cinema to watch The Martian and I enjoyed it. I like films about space like the latest Gravity or Interstellar that I also enjoy them. I think if I have to choose between those three films I will choose The Marian in the first place. 

The Martian is a science fiction film and it's based in the novel written by Andy Weird that is also called The Martian.

                                                

The film starts with a spatial mission in Mart where some astronauts from the NASA have installed a spaceport and are researching the conditions of the planet, their composition and things like that. During this mission, there is a strong storm in the planet that force them to have to give up the mission and return to the Earth. The storm caught them and while they are trying to return to their spacecraft they have an accident and they lost one of the members of the team. The rest have to leave him in Mart and they have to start the journey to the Earth without him because they think that he must die. 

The storm passes and the astronaut that is supposed to be died is not, he is alive and he is alone in Mart. 

At first, they spend a few days without knowing what exactly he have to do, he is alone, in another planet and the worst thing: nobody knows that he is alive. 

The surviving refuse to give up and died and he thinks that there are two things he has to do: first of all, he have to notice to the Earth that he is alive, and the second one, he has to solve the problem of the food and water. 

For the second problem, he comes up with and a clever plan, he will tray to grow potatoes in Mart. To get it he has to create the great conditions for the potatoes and it means to create a space with ground and water. 

While he is trying to raise potatoes, he has to solve the first problem. For that he also has some clever ideas and he have to make up a kind of vocabulary to notice to the Earth that he is in Mart. 

Finally, he can communicate with the NASA and from the Erth they started a campaign to try to save him. NASA plays against the clock and in addition to "diplomatic" issues the NASA has to fight against the physic laws that spoiled his attempted of salvation. 

Now I should say what happened at the end, but I think I have said so much about the film and I prefer you to discover if the lost astronaut may be saved or not. 

When you see a film like The Martian, one of the things that you think is that maybe a little bit boring to see a lonely men in Mart and the film can turn repetitive and the same all the time. But I have great news is that this is not so! One of the reason of that is because the astronaut that it's forgotten in Mart is none other than Matt Damon! He is a "sarcastic" astronaut and he takes a little lightly the fact stay on Mars and he makes the film funnier.
