Worthwhile upgrade

Ultimately the Martian extended cut isn't that varyingly different or extended from the theatrical cut. BUT if you liked that film and are at all a home theater buff, this one is all the better as the UHD extended cut features a wonderful upgrade in the audio department with a Dolby Atmos mix. For those of us already equipped for such an experience, it's definitely a treat, right from the get go as the storm hits. It definitely is an atmospheric experience even for scenes simply in the interior of the Hab.
While the film was shot mostly in 5K it was edited and mastered in a 2K environment. However, there are elements for this release that went back to higher resolution when possible - it's a confusing thing but you can ready about it from the filmmakers online. Ultimately it's a really good looking version - whether shots are uprezzed or not - that also takes HDR and uses it to it's best advantages for adding some pop and nuance without overdoing it.

The Martian is fun to watch. It has it's moments during serious and tense scenes, but the humorous parts were a bit tacky . The scenes where the main character keeps complaining about the disco music that he has to listen to was tiring. I mean okay we get, enough already. The 4K master of this film does have a noticeable upgrade. It's worth a look.

Ridley Scott is a brilliant assembler of casts, and he knows how to organize groups so they seem to naturally fit, and can bob and weave in unison with his roving cameras.

I didn't think a movie about a guy all alone on a planet would be very captivating, but I was absolutely wrong. This movie was great! Watching it in 4K is worth it as well!

This is a terrific NASA feel-good story that is uplifting and it is an excellent escape from the pettiness, nastiness and cynicism we often find in today's life.

This is the best version of the movie. A little more exposition and nice crisp 4k. Don't know if it's supposed to be letterboxed but still looks great. I was just upset that I never knew Extended version was coming when I bought the theatrical. That was dishonest of them. This version comes with both though

Fantastic movie much improved in HDR. The atmos sound really expands on the already good soundtrack and brings a new level of depth to the movie.
