The overall pace of the film is slow burning and there isn't too much going on even at the climax of it all. The problems the character faces throughout the plot are downplayed but still have intensity which is good. It's a super chill, subtle and beautiful film about the thoughts and emotions of the first person to make a crazy journey through space. No over the top thrills, just a refreshingly realistic take on space travel that opens your heart. Very different to all the other space voyage films being put out by the big boys. I really enjoyed it, despite the fact that it feels like nothing has happened. Kind of relaxing!
... View MoreThis movie probably gives an accurate account of sending the first human being to Mars. It wont be spectacular. It will however be one long suicide attempt. Nobody has the right to exploit that person. Better shut the camera's down. Mankind will only be able to cope with that journey on a poetic and psychological level. The first missions will be far from actually living on Mars. So much has to be established first.

There are no sun explosions between Earth and Mars, not at all. There could be a sun explosion when we leave this Solar System by a long of light - years. With such a short distance from Earth to Mars there is no way there could be a sun explosions, unless it was our sun, which would have exploded the whole Solar System.

Money used to make this stinker could have been put to better use and maybe help starving kids in Africa or Syria. Just wondering who is the idiot that actually read this script and said impressive, lets go ahead and shoot this masterpiece?
