As a frequent moviegoer, I watch a lot of films. One of the movies that I enjoyed the most recently was The Martian.
The movie was based on a novel of the same title. Just like many other sci-fi films, it was about a man travelling in space, however, this time, our main character was stuck on Mars due to a dust storm which nearly killed him. All of the crewmates thought that he was dead, so they went back to the Earth without him. But fortunately he was still alive, so the whole movie told about the story of how he survived in the brutal environment of Mars, until NASA devised a plan to rescue him.
I’ve read about the move in the internet and I was very curious about the story behind this move. When one of my friends, who is a big fan of astronomy, suggested to watch the movie with her. And I immediately accepted the invitation.
After watching the movie, I was amazed at how ingenious and strong humans can be when it comes to a death situation. Mark, the hero of the movie, was a perfect portrayal of a young, brilliant and skillful engineer. Although the extreme environment of Mars threatened his existence many times, he still refused to quit. Instead, he always tried to overcame his problems until he was successfully rescued. The message that I learned from the movie is never to give up.
