Well
you've heard that the Moon was made of Cheese. Did you think
Mars was too ?
Well,
maybe Mars isn't made out of Cheese but boy this film is stuffed
with it. Brian De Palma one of out most inventive directors
has never exactly been know for having the best dialogue in
his Movies surpasses himself with this one. Did the actors
not feel embaressed saying soem of the lines in this film?
I know I would have.
The
idea of this Movie is a great one and is so close to being
a success but another fault with it is the complete cribbage
from so many other space Movies. See if you can spot scenes
"borrowed" from 2001, Close Encounter of The Third
Kind and The Abyss.

Now
I for one am no prude when it comes to referencing other Movies
but this film is not very subtle in the way that it does it
which is a shame as I really wanted to enjoy this Movie.
You
can see there has been a lot of effort went into the design
of the spacesuits and the spaceships which have apparently
been based on actual designs from NASA.
Still
never mind there is another Mars movie on its way Red Planet,
lets hope it's much better.
