Yep, that was an awesome trailer. Almost as awesome after the book its based on: The Martian by Andy Weir. Mark Watney is stuck on Mars. He has to survive on his own with many challenges ont he way. This scientific/suspenseful/funny book is a great read. But, it does have some language...
Language: The F-word is used sometimes several times ina single scene other times just once in a scene. D-ck is said a few times, as well as hell, damn, a--, SOB, and bastard. The S-word is used both as a curse word and in the literal sense. (More on that later)
Sexual Content: Mark says because a probe is named after a mythical god who is the god of unicorns, that the probe is gay. While a man and a woman are email chatting another man writes on the woman's email while she steps away for a few seconds as a joke. He tells the man on the other end that the woman wants to have sex with him. (She doesn't). Someone says a member of the Ares 3 crew is hot, then finds out he's married. Mark says he hasn't seen a woman in a while and makes a joke about showing the Queen of Mars (No one) Earth "lovemaking". All of the jokes are very minor and NONE are graphic at all. The Fault in Our Stars had more sexual jokes than this book.
Violence: Most of the violence is more of suspense, and none of it is graphic. Mark has his side cut while out on Mars. Later, he breaks a rib. Someone unlucky is shot out onto Mars while inside an airlock. Thus, the person is trapped until he can find a way out. A building half explodes. A man goes into space with half of his shuttle missing.
Drugs and Alcholol: Mark takes caffeine pills every once in a while. People back on Earth drink coffee just to stay up.
Other: Mark needs food on Mars. That means he needs to grow it. He has some Earth soil. But, what about fertilizer. He uses his and his crew mates feces as a fertilizer. Gross! But, he has to survive. Also, urine is put into a water reclaimer for a while.
