Hail Mary is the finest film I've seen in my life.

[byronius]

I read the book awhile back, and had trouble imagining how a movie based on the book would be possible. I've just returned from the theater with my questions answered.

The story is quite brilliant, and the film makers managed to honor it with serious devotion to detail. It is human and humane, shocking and powerful. Frankly, it moved me deeply.

I urge everyone to take the time to see this film. If you haven't read the book, feel free to wait.

Honestly. I'm blown away. Ryan Gosling is great.

1. I am not impressed.

It's Cartoonish.

3. Did you feel that compelled to shitpost?

Every one of your recent posts is similar in nature. If you’re not interested in it, move along instead of bashing it.

5. We can tell a lot about someone from their "latest hits" ...

If we know where to look and take the time, can't we?

6. Did you view the video I posted?

Giving my honest opinion is not shit posting.

8. I watched it. My assessment didn't change.

2. I read the book, then saw the movie

Loved it! Lots of details from the book were left out of the movie. None of them really mattered for the telling of the story.
The theatre was packed, which I haven't seen since pre-pandemic. Lots of folks are interested in this movie.

4. Looks interesting- will watch!

7. I also just saw it tonight with my

2 adult kids. The audience was frozen. Almost no one got up for 2 1/2 hours - which is impressive considering no bio breaks for that long!
Agree - it's a really great movie! I think we collectively need something like this right now.

9. I was thinking of seeing this tomorrow.

I love Sci-Fi.
Reality sucks!

10. I'll look for it. Thanks for the rec.

11. Plan on seeing it Tuesday on bargain day.

There's no cinematic experience that can't be made better by a bargain.

12. I went to the theatre.

The box office was closed. Go inside to the machines to purchase a ticket. Senior, $10
Small coke, small popcorn. $14 (I got old) It's been over 10 years.

The movie is a mix. The basic story is very good but the execution was PG. I'm not sure what part is the 13.

I detected bits of Number 5 from Short Circuit, Interstellar, The Three Stooges, and Silent Running. A little cute mixed in with an important mission. It's a good movie with an interesting finish. (There is a 2 minute section which I don't like, but no spoilers.)

Take the family and enjoy!

13. I absolutely loved the book

And am a bit apprehensive about seeing the movie. I've heard it's really well done. My S-I-L said the trailer gives way too much away. That's a shame.

21. It's very true to the book, better than most adaptations..

Not quite as I imagined it in reading, but movies never are.

I'll watch it again in a theater if the opportunity arises. There's not many movies I say that about. The two and a half hours goes by quick.

I read the story first so there wasn't much to give away. Watching two of the trailers did not detract from my enjoyment of the movie.

14. The movie has leaked online

I gave up on it 45 minutes in. If you suffer from insomnia like I do, this movie will absolutely put you to sleep.

15. You really have a problem with this film, which I suppose is your right.

But hammering on it up and down this thread is a real indication of a problem with yourself.

Get some help. Negative obsession is not healthy.

[Sector 001]

16. WTF

It's a bad movie, deal with it.

[byronius]

17. It's a great movie that you have a problem with.

You have a right to your opinion. But you've been a bit of a bully on this thread, almost as if you have a personal connection to the film.

You've expressed yourself. Relax.

[Sector 001]

18. You are the one having an issue with my honest opinion on a bad movie

How does my honest opinion that differs from yours make me a bully?
Fact is, you're trying to bully me because you disagree with my opinion.

[byronius]

19. Understood. Goodbye.

20. Simple solution

Put him/her on Ignore. Problem solved.
