Slowly, he begins to realize he\u2019s been sent on an Earth-saving mission from which he will never be able to return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>REVIEW:<\/strong> Rarely has a studio had as much faith in a movie as Amazon\/MGM seems to have with <em>Project Hail Mary<\/em>, the biggest film they\u2019ve produced since the streamer started to ramp up its theatrical release calendar. Based on the novel by Andy Weir (<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/tag\/the-martian\/\">The Martian<\/a><\/em>) and directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (the <em>Spider-Verse<\/em> films, <em>21 &amp; 22 Jump Street<\/em>), the film has not only been getting a lot of word-of-mouth screenings, but this weekend it\u2019s set to play a limited 70mm engagement a week before it goes wide. Clearly the studio is convinced they have a winner, and having finally seen the film for myself, I\u2019m inclined to agree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While time will tell whether <em>Project Hail Mary<\/em> turns into the theatrical event it\u2019s being positioned as, it\u2019s a thoroughly entertaining space adventure which, like <em>The Martian<\/em> before it (also adapted by screenwriter Drew Goddard), aims to be an optimistic, feel-good story that should inspire a generation of would-be astronauts \u2014 or scientists for that matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ryan Gosling is perfectly cast as the hero, Dr. Ryland Grace, who\u2019d prefer to be teaching science in a middle school than floating in outer space, making him a less-than-stoic hero. Gosling excels in the part, imbuing him with a large dose of humor while never making him come off as anything other than the brilliant man he\u2019s supposed to be. He\u2019s goofy but never silly, and Gosling has the presence needed for the role, with it almost becoming a one-man show for a good chunk of its running time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well\u2026 that\u2019s almost true. In fact, beyond Gosling, the movie has another star in his alien buddy Rocky, whom Grace encounters on his journey and who is also trying to save his own planet from the same phenomenon that threatens Earth \u2014 a star-destroying organism called Astrophage. Rocky becomes Gosling\u2019s dominant co-star, being a visual-effects-enhanced puppet who was actually operated on set and becomes a true scene-stealer. The friendship that sparks between Grace and Rocky gives the movie its heart, and by using older methods to animate him, he feels real in the way classic sci-fi characters like E.T. or Yoda did, which is strikingly different than if he had just been CGI. He\u2019s a true special effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, Lord and Miller, who will likely become the two hottest directors in town after this, have made a deliberate attempt to adopt and adapt some older VFX techniques, with the film eschewing green screen for practical sets and using CGI to give everything a finished polish. It feels like a reaction to the overly CGI-driven Hollywood blockbusters that are becoming endangered by the growing use of AI. While many will compare it to <em>The Martian<\/em>, it also seems inspired by Peter Hyams\u2019 underrated sequel to <em>2001: A Space Odyssey<\/em>, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/the-best-movie-you-never-saw-2010-the-year-we-make-contact\/\">2010<\/a><\/em>, to which it shares a few visual similarities (plus they both open with the classic MGM logo).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hail-mary-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Project Hail Mary\" class=\"wp-image-848350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hail-mary-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hail-mary-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hail-mary-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hail-mary-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.joblo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/hail-mary.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also innovatively photographed by Greig Fraser, with it showing in a variety of formats, including 2.35:1 70mm and IMAX screenings. In the IMAX screening I saw, the aspect ratio changes, with the Earthbound scenes in scope while the frame opens to the IMAX ratio for all the sequences in space. The Earth sequences only take up about 20% of the movie, but like the rest of <em>Project Hail Mary<\/em> they have a lot of warmth, with Grace becoming close to Sandra H\u00fcller\u2019s character \u2014 the cold head of the Hail Mary project. In a nod to her work in <em>Toni Erdmann<\/em>, in which she memorably sang Whitney Houston\u2019s \u201cThe Greatest Love of All,\u201d she gets another karaoke moment, singing a stirring version of Harry Styles\u2019 \u201cSign of the Times.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it runs a hefty 156 minutes, the running time zips along, with Lord and Miller having a good handle on pace. It\u2019s really an impeccably made movie, with everyone involved doing superlative work, including Daniel Pemberton, who contributes a strong score. It\u2019s the kind of movie that deserves to become the next <em>Sinners<\/em>, so hopefully audiences will give it a shot. It\u2019s upbeat and leaves you walking out of the theater feeling optimistic \u2014 which I think all of us could use in these rather somber times.<\/p>\n            <div class=\"movie-rating
