    The book is really good, of course there is a depth and detail in it that's impossible to put in the film, but they still captured the essence of it.

    Its nothing extraordinary in the "I've never seen that before" sense, its just a very good execution of the source material, little to no fluff, and just an all around good fun movie..

    Saw the movie last night. Loved it. So glad to see a happy ending once in awhile.

    I cant believe Anthony panned this move as "OK" because he viewed the cast as "too PC"... douche...

    I don't remember the review or the cast being overly PC (as most casts these days are).

    Was on the show he did the day after all the Stern outcasts were on his show, and Bob Kelly showed up. He talked about The Martian and Everest briefly.. He said in a nut shell, because the astrophysicist kid was black = totally unbelievable...
