60 of 478 · most liked firstI went and saw Project Hail Mary. A guy came in with his service dog and the dog sat there the whole time just concentrating on the movie. Afterwards I told the guy I was amazed your dog watched the movie like that. He replied, me too especially because he hated the book.
positive · AI labelView post →A few nights ago, I watched Project Hail Mary without knowing anything about it. I experienced the kind of genuine awe and excitement that I don't really get with movies anymore. I stopped watching trailers or following movie release schedules a few years ago and it greatly increased my enjoyment.

positive · AI labelView post →watched Project Hail Mary knowing almost nothing about it besides “sci-fi movie with Ryan Gosling in space“ and i truly recommend that experience
positive · AI labelView post →Finally saw Project Hail Mary which is exactly the kind of film that smashes into my heart and I'm disgusted that I hadn't seen it sooner.
positive · AI labelView post →‘PROJECT HAIL MARY’ has earned $33.1M in the film's domestic opening day. Biggest domestic opening day ever for any non-franchise film. Read our review: bit.ly/DFMary
neutral · AI labelView post →If you want a big spectacular book-adaptation American movie about a reluctant clever hero on an impossible journey through weird places (which I do), Project Hail Mary is great.
positive · AI labelView post →Watched Project Hail Mary with the parents. Such a great film. They loved it too! Amaze amaze amaze.
positive · AI labelView post →Went to go see Project Hail Mary. Wow. Just wow. I laughed a lot. I teared up a lot. A film that is both powerful and uplifting while also being fun and exciting. Interstellar with a sense of humor. An instant sci-fi classic.
positive · AI labelView post →Why did nobody tell me Project Hail Mary is a very very good movie
positive · AI labelView post →The actual reality of what’s going on with NASA is a real trip when juxtaposed with what a hit the NASA-saturated “Project Hail Mary” film seems to be. I wonder how many people who enjoyed the film are aware of just how much this admin has shanked all the cool real-world research it featured.
neutral · AI labelView post →I’ll always remember Project Hail Mary as the movie where I saw someone smuggle an entire bottle of mustard into the theater and squirt it on a bunch of tiny cocktail franks.

positive · AI labelView post →Sarah Natochenny says animated films don’t need celebrity voice casts to succeed, praising James Ortiz’s performance as Rocky in ‘Project Hail Mary’: “You don’t need them, and people will go see a great movie, regardless of whether a celebrity is in it.”
neutral · AI labelView post →Ok, Project Hail Mary, the movie, is very good.
positive · AI labelView post →Project Hail Mary is a beautiful brilliant film. But molecular biologists be warned there's a deeply disturbing scene midway through when Ryan Gosling's scientist places two eppendorfs directly next to each other in an otherwise empty unbalanced microcentrifuge & sets it spinning with wild abandon.
positive · AI labelView post →Project Hail Mary is going to make a hojillion dollars because it's a visually stunning film based on an original story and it's main audience is people who like good movies. Younger kids? Yep. Older folks? I recommend it. People on a date? Absolutely. Lone person who wants to get lost? Love it.
positive · AI labelView post →For a sci-fi movie that still cuts the mustard, 1972's Silent Running had the effect on me that Project Hail Mary has on young people today. This thoughtful sci-fi movie imagines an Earth ruined by climate change, and a man all alone with his robot pals. 4 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/06/03/s...

positive · AI labelView post →“Project Hail Mary” reportedly cost upwards of $200 million to produce, becoming one of Amazon’s biggest swings as a film distributor.
neutral · AI labelView post →watched Project Hail Mary with middling expectations and zero knowledge about what it was (aside from a clip I saw which actually turned me off) and yeah - it's worth a watch in case you need a nudge. Loved it. Loved how it was shot, the script is fantastic and it's just a delightfully warm film.
positive · AI labelView post →I'd add a whole range of movies--as varied as Weapons, The Housemaid, The Sheep Detectives, Project Hail Mary, The Drama, Iron Lung, and Michael--to make a case that we might be embarking on the first big realignment in ages. (Note: No sequels, and exactly one studio film out of the 9 I've named.)

neutral · AI labelView post →Saw “Project Hail Mary” in IMAX tonight. For me, it’s the best space travel sci-fi film since “2OO1: A Space Odyssey.” I was emotionally, intellectually, and visually gobsmacked. For the first time in decades, I felt that thrill of space travel and discovery.

neutral · AI labelView post →I guess embargoes have lifted or whatever but Project Hail Mary (the movie) is wonderful. Recommended.
positive · AI labelView post →Generally, books are better than their film adaptations. But with Project Hail Mary, the problem is Andy Weir thought he was writing Very Serious Hard Sci-Fi, whereas Phil Lord and Christopher Miller correctly understood in a "death of the author" way it's really a campy buddy comedy sci-fi story.
