The Martian
Requires very little effort, there's minimal character development, I didn't much care what happened to anyone, it looks nice, it's long but didn't drag although it didn't have much to say, I doubt I will think about it much ever again and would hesitate to reccomend it.
However...
I know it's from last year but I finally caught up with The Homesman last night. Very downbeat but engaged me throughout and some of the scenery is stunning. Thought Hilary Swank was excellent too.
Like the sound of this and hope to see it this week. I read that there are a lot of long single takes that are impressive but distracting - was this the case?
