Read The Martian before the movie. Huge difference.
Movie is fine. But the book? Way more detail on the science. They cut out like half the problems he faced. Felt rushed in theaters. Book made you actually understand how he survived. Anyone else feel the book version was just deeper?

It's a pattern lately... books make you slow down, movies just want to rush past the hard parts.

Nah, you're totally right. The book made you feel his isolation way more too. Didn't the movie skip like three different disasters that almost killed him?
