When times are tough and world-weary souls have looked for an avenue of escapism to retreat from their woes, worries and weltschmerz, they’ve often flocked to the movies to relieve that pent-up pressure. And, at a time when it feels like the world is going to you-know-where in a you-know-what (like now), that’s true more than ever. So it’s with that in mind that this much-anticipated sci-fi space adventure from directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller enters the picture, a release promulgated with the hope of providing that much-needed and much-hoped-for entertainment remedy. Unfortunately, it comes up seriously short of...

I think this might be my favourite sci-fi film since “Galaxy Quest” (1999) and like that, this is a solid and entertaining story led by an actor who is quite possibly getting better looking and more charismatic as he gets older. “Grace” (Ryan Gosling) is the kind of interactive science teacher that I’d have loved. Few text books, just gadgets, gizmos and beanbag factoids that appear to keep his teenage students interested and enthusiastic. When he leaves one afternoon he encounters the enigmatic "Eva” (Sandra Hüller) who knows of his more rebellious past amongst the scientific community and who invites...

Incredible movie. So heartwarming and funny. The cinematography is gorgeous, the story is so entertaining and you get so emotionally invested to the characters. Ryan Gosling will never disappoint me.

Full review: https://movieswetextedabout.com/project-hail-mary-movie-review-ryan-gosling-shines-in-a-visually-stunning-redemption-story-for-the-ages/ Rating: A- "Project Hail Mary stands as a triumph of narrative over technique, where the redemption of a man who believed himself a coward becomes the symbol of hope for an entire civilization. It’s a beautiful exploration of how genuine communication and personal sacrifice can tear down the most unthinkable barriers, uniting two beings from opposite worlds in a common purpose. Leaving the theater, my thoughts weren’t focused on orbital physics or alien chemistry, but on the profound lesson of altruism that Rocky and Grace leave to the real world. It asserts itself as one of the...

Never read (or heard of the book but not much of a book reader aside from crime-thrillers) so I don't know anything about it, but thought this was a lot of fun with heart and Ryan Gosling was great. Hampering my experience was a girl next to me trying to get every drop of her slushie and the last 30 minutes having a full bladder not to mention the really warm theater. I was in a D-BOX seat which was well utilized. I'll check it out again once it gets to 4K. Still, solid sci-fi drama. **4/5**

Project Hail Mary is a prime example of why cinemaphiles love going to the theater. If popcorn flicks are capable of being intellectually stimulating, incredibly emotional, and monumentally worthwhile, then Project Hail Mary is the ultimate popcorn flick. https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/scifi/hail-mary-review.html

Project Hail Mary presents itself as a modern science fiction centered on the classic mission to save the world, or in this case, multiple worlds. During his journey, the protagonist is joined by the likable Rocky, a character used to further lighten the tone and distract from a plot that evolves through one contrivance after another. The convenient demise of the entire crew feels highly engineered, serving only to force an intimate dynamic between the two characters. A series of convenient coincidences allows the story to conclude in the most favorable way possible. Furthermore, what initially appeared to be a...

Great visuals and humor, but they took out many elements that made the book distinct from a generic "hero saves the world" story, and made Grace and Stratt palatable to an unnecessary extent.

I haven't enjoyed a movie this much in a long time. It was a great story, well balance balanced with humor, excitement, joy, and sadness. The amazing visuals didn't override a great story, nor did they go for too-long moments of visual poetic splendor. And I'm so glad that Rocky wasn't another 'cute' alien.

Well, first half of the movie feels a bit stretched and not very engaging. But the second half was more interesting and has a great audio backing. The visuals like camera and VFX are excellent and a pleasure to watch. I think its a great movie for everyone, who loves scifi or simply wants to see Ryan Gosling. He is doing a great job and with Rocky they are a perfect duo.

The film adaptation of Project Hail Mary is a masterclass in how to translate a high-concept sci-fi premise into a deeply moving cinematic experience. While the technical aspects and the scale of the cosmic mission are undeniably impressive, the true strength of the film lies in its profound emotional core. The narrative goes beyond the "competence porn" of solving physics problems and instead focuses on the vulnerability of being completely alone—and the transformative power of finding a connection in the most unlikely of places. The relationship at the center of the story is handled with a delicate, genuine warmth that...

Masterpiece. The evolution on how his trek began througout this adventure was amazing. Ryan Gosling was made for this movie as he fit the part to the tee. The flashbacks during the movie were great as he pieced together the "Big Picture". It progressed along and captured my attention throughout the movie. Very realistic plot. Thorougly enjoyed it. It makes a profound statement on where we are going as we continue to explore the universe and how this could very well become a reality.

I thought that this was a great film! So many of the shots were amazing, but personally it felt like it took too long to really get going. The first hour had me a little uninterested and after that it quickly gained my attention!

Boring, waist of time. poor excuse for sci fi. pixar joke movie for kids maybe. but thought provoking, intelligent sci fi it is not. From the first scene, the slap stick tone sets the scene for the whole movie. was the director too scared of space where no one hears you scream? The dual timeline didnt work. the main character seemed like two different characters. it didn't ring true on any level. This film is nowhere near the likes of Interstella, Arrival or Moon. Its lego movie is space. such a shame. a real misfire. Give it a miss. too...

This movie is not perfect, but is is tense, and abstract, and deeply funny. It is essentially a one-person narrative with some cgi to act with, and Ryan pulls it off well. The story is strange and intriguing, as is the companion protagonist, making the movie very enjoyable. It is just a fun sci-fi adventure/buddy-movie, and I can highly recommend it.

3 out of ALL stars! A very unpleasant movie. During marketing it was presented as 'sophisticated' science fiction evoking Interstellar. In execution it's like Jim Hanson's Interstellar, an episode of 80s Sesame Street with a money-press budget. Mistake? Confusion? Narcotics? Nefarious nihilism? You decide. A high-brow european actress known for dramatic roles was cherry-picked into a non-descript role, hired to maintain the 'sophisticated' science fiction impression. Scenes with melodrama, gravitas and pathos interchange with scenes of Muppet Show buffoonery like in a throughly shuffled deck of cards. The ship's computer is less competent than Robbie the Robot and serves as...

3/10 roentgen, not great, not terrible. The premise is absurd and completely lacking credibility and that shows in the performances - the actors are there to read their lines and be done with it. The worst is, of course, the inconvincing and unrelatable replay by Gosling of what we've seen in another hundred of similar movies. Sci-fi is not his thing, really, neither is hugging. The plot is linear, predictable and truly boring. The brief socio-political excursion into earth politics is also trite, preachy and boring and without nuance. Not even good enough for a long-haul flight.

There is something about stories set in outer space that make me feel hopeful of the possibilities of this outer space film productions that science fiction directors often hint at. This was definitely an incredible experience that I would go as far to compare to the experience I had watching Interstellar. Gosling and Huller have incredible chemistry in this and look to be conternders for next years academy awards despite the films early release. Unfortunately I was not able to experience this on an IMAX screen (because it is not available in our country) nor was I able to see...

missed a few key-ish moments from the book but thats totally understandable and it still works great. similar comment about Stratt's character but again not deal breaking. I'm gonna spend my entire life shouting about practial effects because I am convinced they make every movie better and make them feel so much more human and cared for and thought through - what they did for this was sooo cool and I love it sm
