One of The Best Sci-Fi Movies of The 21st Century Just Hit Netflix (Days After Leaving HBO Max)

In case you’re wondering, the movie we’re talking about is Ridley Scott’s The Martian. Released in 2015, The Martian marked a return to science fiction for the director of Alien, but this time with a strong emphasis on being realistic and accurate. The film features Matt Damon as Mark Watney, a botanist who finds himself alone on Mars after a NASA mission goes wrong. The story then follows his struggle to survive the harsh conditions on Mars while awaiting rescue. The film is adapted from the novel of the same name by Andy Weir.
