Summary: Not the Best Sci-Fi ever, but very entertaining!
Review: If you have browsed the reviews for this movie, you already know that it has not faired well. I loved this movie and think it got a bad rap because people expected something different than what they actually saw. The ending was surprising and fresh. The special effects are outstanding. If you are a sci-fi fan, you've got to have this DVD! The acting was good--especially for a sci-fi movie. If you liked Armageddon, you'll like this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ciencia ficcion de gran calidad

Summary: Watch you nails grow... is more fun.
Review: THIS MOVIE KEPT ME WONDERING... why did I pay for this? It is the worst movie I've ever seen. A complete disapointment. It has no story, very bad acting, some good special effects.

A complete waste of time. Do anything but don't watch this movie.

Summary: Mission to Mars is the worst movie I have never seen !
Review: The film critics didn't like this terrible movie, and I know why !

It was a great idea to make a movie about a mission to the Red Planet, but an horrible screenplay and very disappointing special effects destroyed this movie. Two great actors (Sinise and Robbins), but unfortunately for them, in a bad movie.

To waste several millions dollars in this kind of movie is a disgrace!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: De Palma is at it again
Review: Brian De Palma's newest film also brings new techniques in the field of directing. One of Hollywood's most unique directors, De Palma not only shows us the story but also allows us to experience it. His graceful camera movements simulates wieghtlessness allowing the audience to experience and feel the movie without ever leaving the theatre. The dance scene between Tim Robbins and Connie Neilsen has to be one of De Palma's greatest long running shots. I smell oscar.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: It Crashed before it was able to take off.
Review: The most I can say about this movie is that the actors tried their best to work with the story material that they had. But ultimately De Palma;s poor directing and lack of a good story makes Mission to Mars a film turkey that got roasted. I can only hope that the next Mars film, Red Planet with Val Kilmer will be better and more interesting. End Review.

Summary: It Sucks !
Review: Well just 2 words can describe this movie - it sucks ! The story sucks ! The acting sucks ! And some decent special effects can't save the movie. Wonders why is the movie made in the first place with such a script ! The audience really feels being taken for a ride, believe me. The final was a anti-climax, its not anything we come to expect, it like you would feel "hmm just like that ? you mean I sit here for 2 stupid hours just for you to tell me that ? Its not help by some bad acting, cos u can really tell that its "acting". From the one expression stone face of the guy who lost his wife & the so unreal space couple. You'll regret if you ever seen this movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Look who survives!
Review: Okay, I know the film has deficits but you are supposed to willingly suspend your disbelief. From a high-tech sci-fi standpoint, the movie definitely comes up short but this film is more realistic than say STAR WARS. Ostensibly, something like a mission to Mars could happen in the near future with real people, not aliens from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Now, I love Star Wars and have seen all of the series at least twice, but Mission to Mars at least had humans using their brains, brawn and wit to find solutions, not something supernatural. The ending was syrupy but it was still spellbinding to think Earth could have been seeded by the dying denizens of Mars. So what's with my title? You don't see many African-Americans in action or sci-fi films geared toward a white audience. When you do, invariably, they are usually the first to bite the dust. In Mission to Mars, not only does he survive, but get rescued and GOES HOME IN ONE PIECE! I say about time!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible
Review: Horrible. Good actors like Tim Robbins, Gary Sinise, Don Cheadle, and Kim Delaney star in this turkey of a spaceship's crew trapped on Mars, so another ship has to go save them. The plot is a recycled cross between Alien and the Abyss, except it is neither scary nor tense nor funny. The actors have to recite the stupidest dialogue imaginable, and even the special effects can't save this. $90 Million ! What a waste ! At least I didn't pay to see this - I saw it on a plane.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Do not purchase this film unless you enjoy throwing away $$$
Review: This "film" was a waste of resources in Hollywood. Though it had some very nice (ILM generated) special effects, they still could not pull the film out of the 'wish I'd never seen it' category. The first crew had a bad experience and only Don Cheadle (Boogie Nights, Out of Sight) is left marooned on Mars. A rescue team goes up over a year later (if I remember correctly) to try to salvage the mission. Only Gary Sinise (Forrest Gump, Ransom) could unlock the secrets of the Universe with M&M's! With almost a supporting role in the poorly directed film, M&M/MARS (! ) must have really dropped a load of cash to have that happen. I guess they're still sore about passing up E.T.: The Extra Terrestrial. Don't waste your time.
