“Martian” proved that Ridley Scott is in good shape – Russian newspaper

The US mission to Mars ended in failure – at the time of landing on the Red Planet begins sandstorm, which forced the crew commander Melissa Lewis (Jessica Chastain) to return the crew of a spaceship and start to return to Earth. Go back, but not all – on the surface of Mars, an astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon) breaks off suit and antenna. And crew members, and the leadership of NASA assured that Watney was killed, but not far from it.

About the new film by Ridley Scott before going to the movie is important to know that this film adaptation of the debut novel by Andy Weir: human, of course gifted. But Weir is not primarily a writer and researcher on the boom and programming prodigy who already received the first 15 years in the life of the contract. Write to them at your leisure “Martian” – a measure of a fascinating, but overloaded with scientific details of the story of the evergreen theme “on Mars will be apple blossom”.

From the novel into a film moved pretty boring description of all high-end pieces, the knowledge of which help to survive on Mars Watney as long as possible . What is the spirit of the novel, and pour balm on the soul of the viewer who is used to reproach science fiction movies implausible.

However, with great it is reasonable to compare the painting should not with the literary source) and another film made separate subgenre ” a solo performance in space “sverhuspeshnyh event – a speech about the Oscar-winning” Gravity “Alfonso Cuaron. Traces of rivalry with Scott Cuaron generously scattered throughout the film – first of all, it concerns the rivalry of visual formation. For breathtaking plans for open space is added to the incredible in its harsh beauty of the Martian landscape.

But if the “Gravity” was strong and over-seriousness symphony in honor of the power of the human spirit, “Martian” wins back the same theme in unexpected frivolous vein . It lacks the dramatic episodes, here simply because of the circumstances of the hero constantly indulges in reflections on life, death, but there was a lot more playful and ironic tone of the popular science show. Abandoned by all on Mars Watney – nerd, quickly begins to grow in the greenhouse he created potatoes, constantly joking on the subject of his position. On Earth, not all tend to indulge in grief because Watney – for art gag here is responsible Kristen Wiig playing piarschitsa NASA, which constantly asks sarcastically, idiotic questions, and Donald Glover, whose character – gutta-percha inventor freak shows most hilarious description of the docking two spacecraft.

development of the theme

For a while it seems that the good ensemble cast lost Jessica Chastain, whose presence on the screen to the middle of the third act is measured in seconds. But the final “Martian” puts everything in its place – here Chastain has a powerful output in your favorite Scott Role woman with solid principles and an iron will.

The characteristic of “Martian” heterogeneity generates its main problem – some heavy and tight. The film is 2 hours 30 minutes and could easily be reduced by 30-40 minutes – as the example of “Gravity”, a short running time does not prevent brainchild Cuaron is perhaps the most significant film of the space the last couple of decades. However, in this case Scott slowness says more about the peculiarities of his way of storytelling – in Standard Two hours later he was laid only a few times in his career. “Martian” confirms that, in its almost 78 years, Scott is in jovial form – it is immensely pleasing information on news about the sequel to “Prometheus”, which finally reunite the universe of “Prometheus” with the universe “Alien”.

In this sense, “Martian” can be seen as a warm-up before the decisive races – this is the correct understanding of the place of painting in the filmography of the Hollywood classics.
