"Project Hail Mary"

We had heard good reviews on the movie "Project Hail Mary". The book from which the movie's script was taken was written by Andy Weir, who also wrote "The Martian". One of Carl's favorite books and movies is "The Martian", and we figured that we would enjoy the movie.

In the theater -- the theater had reclining chairs... which were comfortable, almost too comfortable for a movie in mid-afternoon, prime napping time! But the movie was engaging enough that we did not nap!

This is a picture of the display on the closed-captioning device that I borrowed from the theater - it is displaying words during the ads before the movie began. Since we put closed captions onto the TV for almost everything we watch, I get a lot more from a movie if I can read as well as hear the dialog.

We enjoyed the movie... Carl even leaned over to read my closed captioning device to catch the dialog in some parts when the background sound was loud and dialog hard to hear.
