It was an interesting movie. Helps you understand that everyone processes death differently. Robin Williams showed a little range. Which is haunting after his death. But, it’s a great topic of figuring out what you’d do if you believed you only had a short time to live and how desperately hopelessness turns to anger. Parts of this movie were just over the top. The acting will never win awards, but, it’s a decent movie. Glad I saw this one.

Kudos

Naomi Scott! (2 more)

Normal Guy Ritchie visual flourishes

Some good Disney "in-jokes"

Marwen Kenzari not nearly evil enough as Jafar (2 more)

Others are cast because they look like the animated characters: some would be good in the Disney parade... less convincing on the big screen

Comparison with Robin Williams (RIP)

Pointless remake but adequately done.

Mar 9, 2018

The first manned mission to Mars returns after their two and a half year trip to discover that they are the only living being left on Earth. Where did everyone go? Can they survive long enough to bring them back? The book started a tad slowly, but it quickly grew into a book I just could not put down.
