Listened to the book and watched the extended cut just the other day. It's quite funny, definitely part of Andy Weir's charm, but it's far more dramatic a story than it is a comedy.

Some of the longer, reflective scenes in the extended cut give it a more somber tone, but they don't actually add anything to the story.

It is? Now I'm interested in watching it

It isn't, really. It has funny moments, but on the whole it's an action adventure film, and a very good one at that.
