“Project Hail Mary” Review

Science teacher Ryland Grace wakes up on a spaceship light years from home with no recollection of who he is or how he got there. As his memory returns, he begins to uncover his mission: solve the riddle of the mysterious substance causing the sun to die out. He must call on his scientific knowledge and unorthodox ideas to save everything on Earth from extinction… but an unexpected friendship means he may not have to do it alone.

The first movie that my wife and I went to see after my son was born, his grandmother was over and offered to watch him while we went on a date. It was a perfectly fine adaptation of a fantastic book that I loved when I read it, loved when I listened to a large portion of it with my wife on audiobook, and loved when I heard they were adapting it to a 2.5 hour long movie. I’d be happier if the movie was a 10 hour mini series, but alas, I don’t always get what I want, do I?
