The Martian was terrible

I had this on my to watch list ever since it was released and somehow never got around to it. A highly rated film about someone stuck on Mars? I expected the plot to be something like a man contemplating dying alone on a distant planet, something heavy and philosophical. I did not expect Science: The Film

That was the worst banter I've ever heard and frick they kept doing it for the whole 2 and a half hours. Half the script was just quips that were so bad even Marvel didn't wanna use them.

And why did Matt Damon eat all the time. Showing a character eating is a clever strategy tbh to make people dislike that character because it kind of grosses people out but why are you doing it to the protagonist ffs

The actual science was also Marvel tier. I lold how he made some fancy GUI chat application with animations and etc by typing in a few hexadecimal numbers into a grid.

I could kind of sense the subject matter expert they got in screaming in the background of the writers room and the redditors writing this shit going hmmm but no that's not le epic science enough he needs to shoot air out of his hands and make iron man jokes

I'd just class this as another crappy forgettable cheesy scifi but look at this

wtf is going on
