I quite liked this film, I haven't seen Adam Sandler this instrospective and physically inactive before but it turned out well. His flat vocals actually really work as he looks terrible and for the somber feel in general of the movie.
The ending is a little long winded however and a little more of Carey Mulligan would have been good as she's a great actress.
The feel of the film has something very similar with Cast Away but with more inner thought perspectives and maybe a more obvious narrative.
I didn't really notice the soundtrack, it's subltle and non intrusive.
Overall I would recommend this film unless you are looking for a big action flick, this is more like cast away in space.

I really liked Mad God, I found the visuals to be really interesting, offering so much to the eye that it can be watched over and over as long as you can take some of the disgusting scenes depicted. Where it probably falls down is in the narrative, giving very little away, the film won't explain anything at all so you work harder than with most films to follow the story: the visuals are it's strength and if you don't process them you could miss the point. Borrowing imagery from World War One this film warns what constant conflict can lead to and tells it in a way it's never been seen before and I'd recommend it if you are into giving something different a go.
