Whether The Martian Is A Comedy Debate Settled By Director Ridley Scott 10 Years Later

Ridley Scott settles the score on the debate of whether The Martian is a comedy. Released in 2015, the sci-fi feature sees Matt Damon's Mark Watney stranded on Mars after a fierce storm blew his fellow astronauts off the planet. Many critics point out the film's lightheartedness in depicting a hopeless situation. In 2016, the space movie won a Golden Globe Award for Best Picture in a Comedy or Musical, leading many to debate whether The Martian fits the genre.
