Great film and a really great looking digibook, same price over at Amazon (for those with prime).
Sci-fi feature written and directed by Christopher Nolan, director of 'The Dark Knight' trilogy. On a resource-depleted Earth in the near future, the discovery of a wormhole which can transport users through time and space unites scientists and explorers in the most important mission in human history. Among the potential travellers is a widowed engineer (Matthew McConaughey) who must decide whether to remain with his two children or to test the limits of human space travel, to see if there is a future for humanity out among the stars or whether the end of the Earth spells the end for humanity.
Academy Award-winner Hans Zimmer returns to partner Nolan and score the film. The cast members include Jessica Chastain, Michael Caine and Anne Hathaway. The film was nominated for five Academy Awards and won for Best Visual Effects.

Really enjoyed this film. This and ex machina the 2 best films I've seen this year. Might give the martian a watch tomorrow.

If you like Gravity, then The Martian is essentially the same film with some comedy thrown in, nowhere near as good as its reviewed at but still good to see. Ex Machina is by far the best sci-fi film of this year.

P.S fuzzydunlop: I've also been rewatching The Wire. I take it that's where the username comes from! Great show.

Watched it again last night. Such a great film. Superb music too. I personally can forgive its occasionally clunky dialogue or plot point as the film is just so ambitious. Less a sci fi movie, more a love story about the bonds that link us.

After hoping for that too I have to say this film is not a must-have. As per what a lot of people were saying, the ending is a bit of a throwaway and a let down.
Also there is not a lot special about this special edition. So far as I could tell you get a rather self-congratulatory book, and zero additional features on the blu-ray.
