So we're suppose to believe the whole world cheered onto a guy who was stuck on a planet, spending countless of money and effort and science geeks from JPL to support? Meanwhile, broadcasting this to every country in the world as they watched on from big monitors in their perspective cities and cheer during the rescue? Give me a break. It's that silly. Annoying thing about this is also the moment when the super smart scientist gets an idea but doesn't reveal it because...it's too cool to get right to the director of NASA to tell him off. Because time is of the essence, we have to wait to get to his office to present it. Really? This movie is dumb. Smart, in terms of the science, but really dumb in jamming a story where one didn't exist. It reminded me of those movies that are so intricate, the science geeks go gaga over, and the idiots who don't know science don't want to seem like morons and agree what a great movie it is. It's not. It's a less interesting "Castaway." Also, what's the deal with shooting it in Jordan. You know what it looked like? Utah. So, the entire time, I just considered Damon trapped in some godforsaken place on Earth.

This movie is boring. Further, the ridiculous crew of the Hermes. Selected perfectly to be...so different. They're ineffective and drags. Also the pretty scientists at NASA, PLEASE! If that doesn't take you out of reality, nothing will.

Corny and stupid but well made. So I know why others think it's a good movie. But it's the worst. Now director Ridley Scott, who did so well prior to 2003, has lost his touch. I would dodge this garbage.
