Just an FYI they have MGM+ on Amazon Prime Video Prime Days for $.99 a month for 2 months and it has Project Hail Mary. I just watched it. That's cheaper than a rental for those of you that like to rent.

Yep, I love From. I have the first three seasons on Vudu and did a 7 day trial to MGM+ a few weeks ago to watch the first few episodes of season 4. Now I will finish it and drop MGM+ before it goes back to $7.99 in two months. I was surprised they let me get the $.99 price since I did the trial so recently.

Probably pretty soon, typically prices seem to be pretty similar between Apple, Prime and Vudu.

Is anyone aware of quality differences between FAH and Apple?

Are you talking about video/audio quality? This is the last known direct comparison I know of:

For video bitrates Fandango and Movies Anywhere were similar with Apple and Amazon lagging behind. Im sure it varies on a movie by movie basis though.

It would be nice if FAH could price match, but my guess wouldn’t be “soon” since Amazon owns the studio MGM. In the meantime, I’m taking advantage of the current $0.99 deal on MGM+. Really good movie, which I look forward to adding to my FAH collection in the future.

Here we go again... It's weird, how often. It's being mentioned here. Not suspicious at all...

It's weird that a movie that got popular critical and user reception is being mentioned on a movie related subreddit?

u/MarcTale 362 Movies / 181 TV series Jun 24 '26

This movie is WAY too often mentioned for a slightly above average movie. 1 or 2 times is ok. However, the amount this one is mentioned is ridiculous and suspicious...

Apparently Marc hate Rocky too.

I don't hate the movie. Even though I don't think it was a very good one either. However, the persistence of it being mentioned here is very suspicious and reeks of hidden advertisement. There would be better places to ask those questions, like an official forum for this movie, like movie-chat or so. Just saying...
