Films » Project Hail Mary
A film adaptation of a book I loved that’s actually good. Huh!
Ryan Gosling does great in what is often a solo act. Early on I thought the film was trying a bit too hard to be funny, but at some point it started working and I enjoyed it.
There are lots of parallels to The Martian, Arrival, and so on, but it’s a sufficiently different mash-up of the concepts that it’s not a problem.
