Not very good. I never thought it would end.
Amazing….perfection….. nothing satisfies more then this
I will say that I’m not a science fiction movie lover, but this was a story of connection and friendship. It delivered in that regard. Ryan Gosling was amazing, as was his costar. I just loved it.
Same plot twist as Adam Sandler space movie from last year. Too long.
If I thought Wuthering Heights was the worst movie so far this year - I had not counted on seeing HAIL MARY chaos. Gads -geez- how boring, I could not wait for this farce to be thru so I could go home. It's downright beyond horrible. Talking to a rock makes good sense I guess. UGH
I really liked The Martian, so I thought I would like this movie and I was not disappointed! I was never a fan of Ryan Gosling until I saw Lars and the Real Girl and then Barbie and The Grey Man. He is the obvious centre of the film and does a fantastic job. The woman who recruited him was as steely cold as she needed to be. There was just the right amount of humour and tears. Even if you don't understand the science, they absolutely tried to dumb it down for us and it made sense. From learning to speak with the alien, to trying to figure out the problem, they did a great job of speeding up the process for us but showing us it did take quite a bit of time to do all the things required. I think whoever is saying negative comments is likely just a bot trying to drive down the review score. See for yourself.
The movie was a mix of what felt like a documentary, and social commentary/awareness and breaking the 4th wall minor buddy comedy. At first, I did not know what to make of it, but then I came to understand it. So much going on. Old Disillusioned, grizzled paramedic who is clearly burning out and could snap at anytime, and a relative newish partner who is certainly becoming seasoned and going through some newbies who are either going to hack it, or they don't. You have the wage disparency between Doctors, nurses, check in reception, physio, etc...and on the extreme low-end are the paramedics and what they have to endure as the front lines. It clearly shows EVERYONE in that sort of field has their stresses (ie: when the doctor ranted about all of the hospital's stresses he deals with)..and the paramedics dealing with people who scam the system for a meal or sleep or meds, and those who really need it from the young to the old as well as a scene with a mental health patient who was this 6'6" big black dude and the 3 white police officers who showed up and this was more of a scene where 2 different first responders showed up for the same all and how one did their best to diffuse the situation and the other was shoot first and resolve it quickly. Guess which was which. Then the Paramedic's years of knowledge teaching the newbie some REALLY important lessons and she also saw how stressful the paramedic's jobs really are by spending a day in their shoes. THAT was a regular day! You leave the movies with more respect and hoping people who have the ability to make change (ie: wages to work hours 24hrs is crazy, to mental health assistance for the 1st responders etc...) will do something about it. Worth a watch and Raine Wilson does a believable job as a paramedic at the end of his sanity and I totally believed that he must have been one in a previous life. Great job.
To all the fake reviews . Its funny when you read the negative reviews , they all seem to have sleep disorders . all of them discuss sleeping or hard to keep awake. Movie wonderful, well written, directed , and Ryan is the heart of the movie postive message , how could you tear it down ??
Terrible movie. Why is it so long? I get a headache thinking about this movie.
Yes, it was long. But it was all the good things people are saying: funny, beautiful, engaging, strange (in a good way), imaginative. I loved the music!
