Review Tuesday: Project Hail Mary (2026)

  

 

Project Hail Mary

(2026)

A science teacher is sent out into space on a mission to save the sun.

I don't get out to see too many films these days. In a post-COVID world, something really has to pull me in to get around to seeing it. This time around, my BFF suggested watching PROJECT HAIL MARY. I know that this is another film based on a book by Andy Weir (The Martian) so I agreed.

 

The movie starts off with Ryland Grace (Ryan Gosling) awakening from some sort of an induced coma on a space craft that the other crew members are all dead. As a clever mechanism for all teh exposition without making it dull. The rest of the movie is about the mission and what he has to do to get it done. 

 

The movie is pretty long, but quite a lot of fun to watch. It doesn't drag. Now I see what all of teh hype was all about. I agree! Loads of fun, smart, and worthwhile to see!
