Man 10:30pm start to watch Hail Mary was way too late. I liked the Martian a lot more. One too many Marvel-type jokes in this one. 7/10.

That was my only gripe with Project Hail Mary, the lame jokes made me roll my eyes but the crowd I was with were laughing out loud. I was thinking they were all just excited to be catching it early and big fans. I guess it's possible people like that corny stuff.

To be fair that’s Andy Weir’s style. He write quippy smart ass characters.

Project Hail Mary - as someone who read and loved the book, I’m giving it an 8/10. If I hadn’t read the book and just came in fresh, probably a 9/10.
Really really well done. The spirit of the book holds up. Definitley campy in parts, but the heart of the story really does shine.

Just watched Project Hail Mary tonight.
Thoughts?
Amaze! Amaze! Amaze!
The trailer raised my expectations, and it more than exceeded them. What a true adaptation of the book. I laughed, got a bit teary eyed, and laughed some more, and smiled even more, just as I did reading and listening to the book.
Ryan Gosling was perfection for the role. How they adapted Rocky, is exactly how I would have envisioned him.
I can't recommend this movie enough.

I never thought about that... I think it would enhance. Haha
And it might also make that $56 more palatable. Lol. I do remember when it was cheap ... Many moons ago ...

I'm going today (3:30 showing) with my wife and 4 other friends. I bought the tickets so that we could all be sure to sit together and they'll be paying me back.
Nearly $140. For "normal" seats. No DBox, no 3D, no fancy options. Just 6 standard seats. That's just to walk in the door. Never mind any food or anything. Then 'they' have the gall to wonder why 'going to the movies' is a dying thing.

Pre-COVID everything was still priced reasonably from food to the movie theater.
Theaters had to bump their entry fees coming out of the pandemic because they were making nothing for a couple of years. But then they kept those prices and just built on them. Then I guess they added those reward programs to throw people a bone with one freebie every month. But that's pretty measly all things considered. And recently I swear they shrink-flationed their bag/cup sizes.
Now I just pick up a drink from the convenience store on the way rather than pay 7-8 dollars for a fountain drink. Or 5 bucks for a water, which is asinine.
