I think this film is a nice little gem and I don't care about all the critics that found it just too sentimental.For the full duration of the film I was interested by the characters and at the end I was happy for them and thats all I ask for a film, that the character are involving.Uploaded By Line: An astronaut becomes stranded on Mars after his team assume him dead, and must rely on his ingenuity to find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive and can survive until a potential rescue.Ĭast: Matt Damon, Jessica Chastain, Kristen Wiig I would recommend this film to anyone who has enough of a open mind to accept a film that just wants to grab hold of our heart for 1 hour and 45 minutes. The main purpose of the film is to introduced us to two character, make us love them and see them grow together and it does a more then decent job at that. Somme people might found this film "overly sentimental" but I believe it's because we live in a cynical world and a film like Martian child stand out more in a time when we are not used to see a film that doesn't show violence or gross out humor. The most interesting aspect of this film is seeing the character of Dennis progression throughout the film, from a troubled boy to a happy kid, it was really well done. Joan Cusack bring much of the comic moments in this film and it's nice to see her with her real life brother, I love that woman, she always add something to any film she's in.
The acting is great all around.John Cusack his wonderful as always but its the young Bobby Coleman who plays Dennis the young boy who's the real star of this film he is great but also likable and god knows how this sort of character could have turned out in the wrong child actor's hands. In a world were we have countless film about fart jokes and people getting tortured to death, I found "Martian Child" to be a breath of fresh air. At first the writer he's not sure if he's up to the task to bring up a child with such big issues but little by little he realized that he was the perfect match for the boy. The child's rather strange, he hates the sun and doesn't smile often. The story is simple, a lonely widower, also a sci-fi best selling author, adopt a child who lives in a world of his own were he convinced himself that he's a Martian who was sent to earth to study the human race. I call this film a "minor" release because it was not advertised much, just a trailer here and there but it's the type of film that make me happy to work at a cinema otherwise i would have miss out on this little treasure of a film. I work in a cinema so I'm in the perfect job not to miss any film releases including minor ones like this film.
