Analysis Of The Movie The Martian

832 Words4 Pages

The Martian Us as teenagers may at the first look at the movie The Martian and think its science related. The Martian is about these five astronauts that go to Mars, after they are there for awhile a huge storm happened. An antenna goes through one of the members Mark and he died. At least that 's what they thought. The rest of the members leave Mars. Mark (who is a astronaut and a botanist) has to try to survive, he doesn 't know how long he 'll be on Mars or if he 'll ever get back to Earth. You might also think that it 's just another space movie that 's boring and confusing. Well that 's completely wrong. The Martian is anything but boring or confusing. It is nothing what you would expect. At first I didn 't want to watch it, but after I did I was so happy I gave it a chance. It is so interesting and surprisingly very funny. This movie was won two Golden Globes as well. The Martian may not seem like a movie for teenagers, but it turns out being very interesting and humorous. This isn 't your average space movie by any means. Most space movies are always on the Moon but this one is on Mars. When Mark finds out he is alone he first realizes that they don 't know he 's alive otherwise they wouldn 't have left him on Mars, alone. Another fact is, he has a hole in his stomach that is bleeding non-stop. In most space movies the person usually just starts floating in space and they are with the rest of their crew. Mark 's situation is way more complex. He doesn 't have any

  • Commentary On Packing For Mars By Mary Roach

    616 Words  | 3 Pages

    I read the book Packing For Mars by Mary Roach. Packing For Mars is a nonfiction book that sheds light on the uneasy and sometimes awkward aspects of space traveling that allow humans to discover the unknown through rather complex topics of the sciences. Overall, I enjoyed the book because it gave me insight on how we’re able to survive in space due to many inventions and algorithms such as the general relativity equation, yet also being quite entertaining by pointing out on bizarre and comical things astronauts do in space like going to the bathroom or even not showering for such a long periods of time. Mary Roach uses a very interesting yet appealing writing style this book. To begin, Roach seamlessly incorporates important facts and information with humor, which entail keeps the reader thoroughly

  • The Film K-Pax: The Importance Of Family

    386 Words  | 2 Pages

    In the beginning of the movie, we see that Mark isn't very connected with his family and that he often puts work before them. We see this when his wife and daughter are practicing playing the piano and he closes the door to his office so that he can concentrate on his work. This shows how he often blocks people out and focuses too much on his work to appreciate his family. It is because of this difference that I believe that not only the patients but some of the staff wrote letters to Prot, the man who claimed to be from K-PAX, in the hope that they would be the one that Prot would bring back to K-PAX with him.
