Magnetic and absorbing. You're there!


Totally immersive and very original. Those films (and topics) are too rare now.

I hear you, man. Yep.

Well, I wish I was there... But it seemed to be a "guys trip" ! No women on board, he he...

I used to love the Cousteau's movies. Problem with Nat Geo today is that they're trying so hard to keep the viewer on board that they have to create a cliff hanger every 10 minutes and the editing is horrible. This Mars doc is kind of the "anti nat Geo" stuff.

Dean, agreed. Very original. Some people missed the science of it though. they want to show off explaining that NASA missed the point. They just didn't understand the goal of the expedition and things that to train for Mars, you have first to be on Mars...

Especially the Mars part. My kids loooooved it.

Agreed. But it would seem, Dean, that we are fake comments and fake profiles judging by the hatred discussion from 2 guys who can't accept that others understood this film and that they're not equipped to do so. Sad.

reply

Yep. Have you seen PASSENGERS?

reply

yes, it was really different. not a classic doc. i found it so intriguing. loved the pace.
