The disco-loving Melissa (Jessica Chastain) is back enjoying her time with her husband, while Alex (Aksel Hennie) is spending some quality time with his family. As for his fellow crew members, we see that they have gone back to their normal lives after being in space for an elongated period of time. Even better, he is teaching some aspiring astronauts and sharing his experiences on Mars. In this epilogue, Watney is seen looking healthy and back to a normal weight (spending too much time on a deserted planet and living off of potatoes isn't exactly a diet I would recommend).
#AFTER EARTH MOVIE WAS NOT THAT BAD MOVIE#
To satisfy curious viewers wondering what happens to Watney after his rescue, the movie adds in a "where are they now?" segment featuring Watney and his fellow crew members in their new, Earth-bound lives. Yet in the movie? An entire epilogue is added in, in the form of a nicely packaged musical montage. Yet in Weir's book, the crew bands together and goes back to save Watney they rescue him and that's pretty much the end of the story. Nearly all films about people who are stranded have happy endings. It's not that big of a surprise that Watney manages to get rescued at the movie's end. For one, The Martian ending is different than the book.īefore you bring out your pitchforks and torches to go after Scott and screenwriter Drew Goddard for making changes to the original story, they didn't really make "changes," per se.
But like every book-to-movie adaptation, there will be some changes that diehard fans of the book may notice. Even so, the movie stands on its own when it comes to telling Mark Watney's (Matt Damon) harrowing tale of surviving on Mars after being left behind by his crew, who thought he was dead. If you add in the 3-D element, you can also add a dash of Gravity into the comparisons. People have described The Martian, a big screen adaptation of Andy Weir's best-selling novel, as a cross between Apollo 13 and Cast Away because, in short, that's exactly what it is. Otherwise, Lost wouldn't have been so successful and movies like Panic Room wouldn't exist. Ridley Scott's The Martian is easily one of the most anticipated movies of the year - and why wouldn't it be? For some odd reason, moviegoers have a thing for seeing people stranded on a deserted island, trapped in room, or in this case, left behind on an entire planet.
