In an alternate universe where the laws of physics are different, a man struggles to survive on Mars.
For any hard science fiction movie coming out of Hollywood, one must invariably cringe on the wildly whipsawing suspension bridge of disbelief, with the lingering hope that once one reaches the far side, there will be adequate reward.
In this case, there is. It's a very good movie. Perhaps even a great movie. Highly recommended.
So I shouldn't be taking pot-shots.
And yet still I cringe.
P.S. Why must Hollywood be so Republican in its science?
