You can make this a drinking game. Every time the narrator says "eternal rest" instead of "death", you must take a drink.

I can imagine him teaching the students and saying “ Potatoes grow very well on mars until you blow them up”

even though it isnt 100% scientifically correct, still one of the best space movies in my opinion.

I wasn’t expecting much from this film but it is funny, dramatic, and life fulfilling. Instant love to this movie!

I like that the first day on earth he already a teacher having a class full of students. He didn’t even a day of rest 😂

"Ok guys, weight is at a premium so are you sure we are going to need 400 rolls of gaffer tape on Mars?" "Sure, we may need to make an airlock...."

"The overtime alone will be a nightmare" is one of my favorite movie quotes. 😆 😂 😆

A few minutes in, I altered my intention (does that sound right?) and stayed for the entire review/recap. Well presented. Thanks. Thumbs up.

The will to survive in any extreme situation is worth it's weight in uranium. Its an experience to change your thirst for knowledge to ∞

i remember watching a video that looked at data about if you really could grow plants in the martial soil, and while there are perchlorates, they can be removed, and they don't accumulate that quickly, so even if not healthy, he could totally survive of them

One of my forever favorite movies.! I’ve watched it many times over but I still cry… can’t help my tears.. the emotions it evokes! whoaaa!

I have read the book several times, and saw the movie just as many. The movie does the book justice, but there are several liberties that the movie takes that aren't in the book. Mostly because of time constraint. Read the book first before watching the movie. You will not be disappointed. But if you watch the movie first, you'll love the book because it's more in-depth.

I got lost once in a snowstorm while skiing and they shut down all the elevators because of the wind (110km/h) except for the big one that brought you up from the bottom of the mountain. I had to climb back on top in fucking skiing boots with my skis and poles on my shoulder in 110kmh wind because i went the wrong way and i couldn't get to the middle stop of the main elevator. The ski slopes didn't connect to the very bottom of the mountain so the only way down was the main elevator (it was a big glacier). I was 14 years old and i was absoluetly terrified. At first i didn't know what to do then i just started walking. After roughly 1 hour of walking I got to the top and I just let out the biggest "fuck you ever". The guys in the station were pretty surprised because they thought everyone has already left the slopes and i was compeletely alone. Meanwhile my whole class (it was a school trip) was waiting for me in the bottom, but they just thought i was having a hard time at the toilet or smth. I was literrally fighting for my life up there and these guys thought i had diarrhea. After i first watched this movie I got very emotional. Its really weird how i found this whole situation so relatable. Being left behind alone is really nerve wrecking. Also we were skiing in smaller groups, but when I got separated my friend thought I just already went down beause I had literally the most generic green ski jacket ever.

At the end, they all watch the launch of the Ares 5 mission. Ares 4 was cancelled since Mark used the vehicle to leave Mars.

This is the longest movie recap I've watched. It was great

that ending, the part where mark used his suit to iron man his way to the hermes, that was just about THE MOST kerbal thing i've ever seen (aside from ksp itself)

Question for science folks. The atmosphere on mars is SO thin, would a "big storm" really have that much of an effect on you? Super fast winds wouldn't even knock you over if the air pressure is 1/100th what we have on earth, would it?

The movie cost as much to send an actual mission to mars. A real televised mission to mars will make a 100x return-no actors needed, just scientists. We are not producing enough high level scientists.

the sequence of events in this flick are, for the layman, very believable. mark has to continually adapt. but the human spirit and the american drive is strong in this one.

10:49 He should make a couple of those solar panels to-go, and travel in style.

I cannot believe there are people on this planet who have not seen this movie.

That's smart, he was using a cipher called A1Z26 cipher from numbers to letters.

the plants didn't burn they froze and it was the 5 that ended up launching not the 4 at the end since the 4 MAV was used to rescue mark they had to skip that one and go to 5 but you were pretty close

One of the best space/Mars movies ever made in my opinion but I'm basing that off the science infused into the movie because I love learning about that stuff regardless of unrealistic loop holes on the movie.

"Duck me raw" that's the fav line from this book

This just becomes one of my favorite space movie.!!! ❤

This was super well done! Worth a sub for sure!

This is a Brilliant Film, Well Worth a Watch

What I didn't like is the character Rich acts like he came up with this brilliant idea that no one else could have thought of. The Slingshot maneuver is a concept that's been around for decades. Every scientist that does space-related work is familiar with it.

I seen that movie not to long ago. Great movie. Great recap.

An epic re-cap, to go along with an epic movie. Thanks

I remember watching this in Boston, I walked in late, and the whole theater was full. I had to grab some unwanted seats, but this movie was worth it. Funny, emotional, nerve-racking.

guy says Eva and Mac instead of "em-ae-vee" and "ee-vee-ae"

This is the longest recap I've seen but very interesting

Im glad that mark can stand straight on his 1st day back on earth. how he can controll the new gravity forcing to balance on his body.

18:53 in the book, the message is "WATNEY: Look! A pair of boobs! -> ( . Y . )" LMAO

Really appreciate you going into more detail in your recap. You didn't have to explain certain details (like the Council of Elrond), but definitley helps paint the picture. I love this movie and watch it every time I see come on cable!

Read the book by Andy Weir, that this movie is based on. A very good read, plus has more to the story than the movie could show.

I enjoyed this movie. You gotta give it to Matt Damon who survived the explosion in Interstellar (2014) and got rehired by NASA to join the Martian exploration. 😂

I just came across this video today, 12-1 22. Quite the coincidence as I am currently listening to the audio book version.

Thanks for the movie recap. The Martian is one of my favorite movies

This movie restored my faith in sci fi movies

I already watch the movie long ago but watching this video makes me understand the movie further

except that even a 500miles/h wind on Mars would feel like a breeze

Best Space movie I've seen!

there is a great movie absolutely loved it. Keep up the work.

I think it's cool how they got the guy from the Disney movie The Martian in this movie huge homage

When this was in cinemas i forced my girlfriend to go watch this instead of the goofy comedy screening the same night. After the movie ended she said that im in charge when it comes to chosing movies.

6 months later (from upload date), the 1.3M views, the 13K upvotes and only 595 downvotes are impressive. I had upvoted 3 months ago for both the movie AND audio commentary. N_Recaps, the uploader, has a disappointingly low subscriber count of 14.1K. In lieu of any $ from YT, I will say please keep up the good work. Thumbnail or title choice improvment?

The surgery reminds of one Soviet guy in the Antartic and not only he's the only qualified surgeon at the station, he's also the only person at the station.

18:50 Fun fact: Teddy sanders was actually trying not to laugh either.

Great movie.

This was an okay movie to me, primary because I read the book and flet that the move made an injustice to the sourse material by prostrating that the protagonist was a botanist first and then an engineer when it was a complete opposite in the book. That irritated me, especially being an engineer my self.

I always am imagining myself ending up in this situation.

Great movie !

bruh its vancat not Vincent

Elon Musk launched that Tesla for him.

That "first day back on Earth" I don't think represented his literal first day back. I think he will have had many months of rehabilitation and going on a press tour, being interviewed on talk shows, and then once the hype died down, he accepts the job at NASA as being part of the candidate program.

Jason Bourne is an astronaut now, smooth.

Honestly loosing a entire crew in space is at least easier to get to then a person on Mars cause simply cause you don't have to land and etc on a planet and all that not only that you don't know exactly where they'd be so if there out side you'd have to excavate like a entire planet just to find a single body sure you'd find a crap ton of other stuff but at least you'd be able to get someone's family member back to the same planet they are on and honestly we really could use other planets for alot of things

"[...] the Ares 4 mission" "Ares V" 😂

Correction it's not his first day back on Earth it's at least 9 months because his shipmate just had a baby and they had put together another mission. It was his first day teaching at the University.

I love this movie, but I couldn't watch the rest of the video because he said that the plants turned to ash. YOU Do know the surface temperature of mars is about -63° Celcius

when ive seen the movie already i'm just like "ok well i've already seen one of these but i guess i'll watch it"

Brilliant dude!!

Great book and great movie.

.I've seen this movie so many times but never got bored.

I have a hard time believing this guy could change a tire

Matt Damon was perfect for this role

35:22 it says Ares 5 on the TV

I loved that movie!!

I wanted Wang to open portal to Mars

You explained a 2 hour movie in nearly 40 mins....may as well watch the movie

Im guessing Marvel recruited their actors directly from this movie given the number of actors in this who have appeared in the MCU.

This is the Martian I've already watched this movie best movie ever

Loved this film the first time i saw it a d i even read the book which is saying something because i dont read often. The book is much more in depth with the science. Great read i recommend it

Common!!!…. That was awesome!

everyone on earth proceeds to show America only🙂

best comedy i have ever seen

Ha Ha Ha, where is the camera. The last Human has himself and the Camera Crew + Catering .

Elon musk thought this was a documentary. And he believes he was the one stuck on mars

they used the rocket bulided for the bargining chip for ARES 5 mission to have 1 astronant from them. ARES 4 mission crew suggested they scarficed their mission for Mark to use the MAV. the movie done well almost like in the novel. i prefered the novel as some joke and "incident" was not covered in the movie due to time limit. one incident was the oxygen generator was faulty, Mark told NASA about it and NASA told him do not do anything. Mark reply is working now as he clean the oxygen generator and NASA reply "ass"

the tv at 35:23 says V which if im not mistaken means it was the ares 5?

I have seen that movie it’s a good one

35:24 Ares 4? but it says Ares V

This movie was awesome

So are we all going to ignore the fact that they've been talking about the Ares IV mission the whole time but at the end, 35:20, it shows Ares V launch on TV?

What an exciting story, they should make a movie about this!

Believe better such a good movie that I cannot even say I didn't stop or skip even a second in this video I wasted again and again to understand what is trying to meaning some of my words can be different because I am really happy and I am not concentrating on my English writing 😁😁🤠🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Damn this was 1 awesome movie 💯👌🏻👍🏻✔️

Great movie! Loved it!... but one Big Goof: Hurricane speed winds will likely do *_no damage_* because the atmosphere is so thin! It'd be like being HIT with a FEATHER at 1 mph (1.6 kph). 😎♥✝🇺🇸💯

Movie is iconic

i didnt mean to click on this video but now im subscribed so yea

Loyalty is the way

@35:22 but it says Ares 5 on the television

one of the only movies where sean bean aint the villain and dead at the end, i was waiting for ages for the shoe to drop and him dying in some testing malfuction but nah dude survived. this wasnt a movie about mark surving it was really a movie to see if sean bean survives till the end.

What Is The Background Music Name...?

this used to be my favorite movie

Excellent....

I remember being made to watch this in school.
