    Okay well that site is cancer and the article reads like it was written by a 15 year old but thanks anyway

    It was a tiny bit too long but otherwise the entire movie was great. Fist my bump is an all timer.

  3. As a fan of the book, I thought it was a bit too quipy in the beginning, but it grew on me

  4. I definitely think the final act was the weakness, only because the book was so damn good. I get it would have been rough to have a 3+ hour movie, but they absolutely rushed through the weight of the final act. Hopefully we’ll get a director’s cut.

    I went last night with my wife and daughter. Neither have read the books and enjoyed it immensely.

    I reread the book 1-2 a year. I really enjoyed the movie.

    I understand why they cut what they did for time, but it’s odd because everything they cut is what actually made Grace and Rocky deeply bond.

    They cut or greatly truncated:

    * >! The initial contact between the two. !<

    * >! The process of learning to communicate. !<

    * >! Figuring out that Rocky’s species are tremendous engineers but not very technologically advanced in physics and biology. Leading to the understanding of why Rocky’s crew died. !<

    * >! Designing and building the Predator catcher !<

    * >! Grace trying to save Rocky and ultimately almost killing him. !<

    * >! Designing and building the taomoeba chambers !<

    * >! Rocky helping to fix Grace’s ship !<

    * >! Grace figuring out the malfunction with the taomoeba chambers and determining to save Rocky’s !<

    * >! Most of the details of the Grace’s other two crew members. !<

    Again, I think it was a very good movie anyways and I don’t know how you keep these in their full detail while keeping a reasonable runtime, but it does cheapen a lot of the emotional payoff IMO.

    Also

    * >! They cut out a lot of the hard science and most of the ongoing monologue going on with Grace. They handled that a lot better in The Martian IMO. !<

    I fell asleep a little bit in the middle, I think it could’ve shaved off 15 mins.

    I feel after the mission was effectively completed, it took too long to end the movie. There’s also a few nit-picky moments I found too cutesy and could’ve been trimmed in the edit to zero narrative difference. Personal preference really, but overall had a great time with it. 9/10

    The whole thing is near perfect. Best film I’ve watched for a long long time

    As someone who didn’t read the book ( I went with my girlfriend who did) it was an extremely enjoyable flick. However, there were some plot points I was a bit confused about that I’m sure were fleshed out more in the book. The last 20 minutes or so seemed kind of sped through to me just as an outside observer. But overall, I liked it. 8.5/10 for me

    I was actually annoyed by the first half before the alien showed up. People were giggling at gosling’s most inane behavior. This is what constitutes a good time at the movies? I was ready to declare it a 2 star movie, but the 2nd half saved the day, regardless of its corniness. 3.5 overall

    No it’s not – it’s a great film but far from perfect. For those that followed the books, it’s a little different – but still ends the same way. This is a great family film – but doesn’t offer the same adult themes or larger bulk of science in the books.

    When I walked out of SpiderVerse (same directors) the first words out of my mouth were „That movie is _perfect_“

    Also a big fan of Weir and Gosling so I had high expectations.

    I was not disappointed.

  13. Yes. The movie did a really good job of capturing the true essence of the book. But they really rushed through the problem at hand and how they went about solving it. Imo, they wouldn’t have required too much screen time to explain…but decided to skim through it, at times, in blazing speed.

    I highly doubt anyone understood the problem at hand, unless they read the book. Maybe they are priming it for streaming rewatches with subtitles?

    Just my opinion.
