Customer Ratings & Reviews

My wife and kids watched the movie several weeks ago and thought it was pretty good. It provided a plausible solution to the issue of getting stranded on Mars. I don't want to give anything away, but I was hooked on the movie and watched it three times already. Good watch for a weekend night.

If you have watched gravity which is a space movie with a lot of character isolation with not much interaction (solo plot movie) and intersteller which is very plot driven with a lot of character interaction, then the martian is like a middle ground between those 2 with humor added.

An excellent movie with an interesting story about human ingenuity in making a horrible situation into a story of human survival. Way to go American astronaut. This may have been a futuristic Jason Borne episode.

The Martian is probably one of the best sci movie I've seen in a long time. I was impressed by the cinematography and the martian landscape. I felt that Matt Damon's performance was brilliant. I definitely would recommend this movie to anyone who is interested in science as well as the drama.

Owned this in blu ray and heard good things about the 4K version so I double dipped when it went on sale with no regrets. PQ and SQ was great and enjoyed watching again!

matt damon plays this part great. he is hilarious to lighten the mood of a man stranded on a planet to die. i cant really complain about anything in this movie besides the poor body double work for his skinny body. but thats better than a horrible attempt to super impose his head on the body.

Having read the book, I had high expectations for this film, and when I heard Ridley Scott was going to direct, with Matt Damon as the lead, I was thrilled. Scott is the king of science fiction/space films, and his most recent effort surly does not disappoint. The entire cast is excellent.

The Martian is a great movie. It is a powerful journey of one man fighting to get home from Mars. I wouldn't classify it as a comedy but there are some great lines that will make you laugh. There is a little bit more swearing than I prefer to have in a movie but overall it is worth the buy!

Such a crowd pleaser! Ridley Scott directs such an amazing story led by Matt Damon's best performance. The survival aspects and the universal human elements of the film really make it easy to rally behind our characters working toward a shared goal and to become totally invested emotionally!

Wow, wasn't sure about this movie. Didn't see it in theaters, but read a few reviews and heard from friends about. Bought in 3D and sure glad I did. Roller coaster ride until the end. Was hoping for a little more at the end but seeing this in 3D was the only way to go. Beautiful camera work.

Okay, I'll start by saying that I love sci-fi, but this is a very gripping movie. It can be a little slow, but in the same sense as Castaway, so it works very well. All in all, a very well done movie that captures the sense of adventure and the drive to rise above overwhelming circumstances.

An amazing combination of humor, emotion, storytelling and solitude, The Martian delivers on all levels. Damon and Scott have produced one of the greatest space films of all time with this gripping story of a Martian left behind and thought dead following a mission to Mars. Watch it ASAP.

I waited to purchase this film because I assumed a richer set would come out in due time. Thankfully that is the case. Extensive documentary is great, though shorter than on Prometheus, which is one of my favorites. Very worthwhile purchase even if you already own the initial release.

I saw this movie in the theaters, and it brought tears to my eyes. I was able to buy the 4K at a great price from Best Buy. When I played it on my 4K TV using the 4K UHD blu-ray player, it was awesome, like being a part of the movie. My new favorite Martian!

Damon does a great job of carrying this movie. No spoiler alert here, as everyone knows he was left behind on Mars. With dialogue transitioning into quite lengthy monologues, it is somewhat of a unique role for him. He really makes it easy to feel what he is dealing with as things unfold

Matt Damon needs to survive being stranded on Mars. Along the way he must overcome the challenges of communication with earth, growing food, making electricity, and surviving emotional swings as each failure could mean his death. The science is explained so it is fun and not overwhelming.

The extended edition really adds depth of character development. This is one of my first 4K videos since I got my Sony 4K player and I am enjoying the richness of sound, color and detail. MARS - YAY !

If you have seen The Martian already then you've of course seen most of this movie already. Being that this is a extended edition you of course get treated to some extra footage during the movie along with some more extras that you didn't get in the original version of the Blu Ray.

Great movie, great quality. This is actually my first BluRay movie. It was on sale and I had seen the movie beforehand so I thought I'd try it out. Turns out, quality IS better on Blu Ray. I should start shelling out the extra few dollars and upgrade from standard DVDs.

I was really turned off towards this film after watching Gravity (quite possibly the worst space movie ever made) but I finally jumped on the band wagon and watched it. Loved it!!!! Now I own it and watch it all the time. Apparently you can survive on determination, sarcasm and potatoes.
