@chrisgeidner@shayes287 Titanic actually creates suspense through scope whereas nothing in The Martian even suggests he's in trouble.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@kevinpokeeffe@shayes287 There were parts of Interstellar that were phenomenal, but some of it was so clunky it turned me off.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@kevinpokeeffe@shayes287 The Martian, I felt, told its story -- which was, ultimately, fairly predictable -- but told it very well.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@chrisgeidner@shayes287 But I enjoyed it largely because it *isn't* intense. It's a nice, simple story told nicely and simply.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
