The Palace Cinema: The Martian

Yesterday we got our timetable for the week and what a good start: the evening program was watching movie in the Palace Cinema. When we reached our destination with Alexa we went inside a small and cute screening (sleeping) room. We watched a film titled the Martian. The story was basically about an astronaut who was researching Planet Mars with a NASA mission. But suddenly a huge tempest almost took them off their feet. Except for Mark everyone escaped and they left him on this deserted place because they thought their friend was dead. Our main character had to take care of himself for seven months because he lost contact with NASA.
In my opinion the story was a bit slow, however it can represent social support. On the other hand Mark had a good sense of humour which was in great contrast with his dire situation and it helped to survive this impossible situation. It was also funny to see that the control centre of both the American and the Chinese space program can be found in Budapest.
All in all it was a good evening and there are several more exciting program waiting for us.
