MOVIE REVIEW () REVIEW BY PHIL: " ONE OF THE MOST RIDICULOUS MOVIES OF THE YEAR !  "
NOT A SOUND. NOT A WARNING. NOT A CHANCE. NOT ALONE. NOT A GOOD MOVIE !

THE MOVIE'S SLOGAN SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. EVERYTHING THEY CLAIM IS TRUE. THERE REALLY NOTHING TO GET ALL EXITED ABOUT !!! THE MOVIE IS SIMPLY WORTHLESS AND RIDICULOUS. IT'S MAYBE THE WORST SCI-FI MOVIE EVER.

         THE STORY BEGINS WITH THE STEREOTYPED CREW OF PASSENGER GOING TO MARS (AGAIN ! ) ON A MISSION TO SAVE THE PLANET (IS THIS THOUGH STILL CONVINCING TODAY ??? IT LOOKS LIKE A CHILDISH RHYME ! )

ANYWAY, THE AIR ON EARTH IS DEVASTATED BY POLLUTION AND THEY MUST DO A THING ABOUT IT . SO THEY GO TO MARS TO FIND SOME AIR (HOW LOGICAL ! ). 

THE STORY'S EVOLUTION IS REALLY SOMETHING WE'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE : EVERY SCENE SEEMS TO BE MORE USELESS THAN ITS PREDECESSOR AND THE STORY GETS MORE AND MORE STUPID. THE CHARACTERS WANDER ON MARS WITH NO REAL PURPOSE. THEY ARE CHASED BY A SUPER-INTELLIGENT ,DOG-LIKE ...MACHINE !!!! YOU WONDER : IS THE STORY ABOUT THEM ESCAPING THE ROBOT OR SAVING THE EARTH. 

WHILE THE RESCUER'S BEHAVIORS ON MARS ARE REALLY UNEXPLAINABLE, CARRIE ANN MOSS EXHIBITS HER BRAIN CELLS IN A TINY SPACESHIP IN GRAVITY ON MARS' ORBIT. WHAT THE HELL IS SHE DOING UP THERE ?????

         THE CAST REUNITES MANY ACTORS BUT THEY PLAY SO BAD YOU PREFER THE ACTING OF THE ROBOT ....

ANOTHER RIDICULOUS THING ABOUT THE MOVIE : IT TRIES TO GET ALL PHILOSOPHIC ABOUT LIFE , DEATH AND POLLUTION. YOU CAN'T REALLY HELP TO LAUGH WHEN YOU LISTEN TO THAT OLD, WRETCHED ASTRONAUT TALKING ABOUT THE MEANING OF LIFE AND RELIGION.

        I WONDER IF THIS MOVIE SHOULD BE PLACED IN COMEDY RATHER THAN IN SCIENCE FICTION . YOU CAN'T STOP LAUGHING AT THE ENDLESS AND MEANINGLESS PROBLEMS THAT ENCOUNTER THE EXPEDITION.

THE ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT THIS MOVIE IS THE IDEA OF BREATHABLE AIR ON MARS CAUSED BY SOME DISGUSTING FLIES.....

IF YOU WANT A REALLY GREAT AND ENTERTAINING SCIENCE FICTION MOVIE, DONT WATCH THIS ONE BECAUSE IT WILL MAKE YOU THINK AGAIN ABOUT THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN MOVIES .

DVD REVIEW ()

THE FEATURES , IF YOU STILL FEAL LIKE WATCHING THEM , ARE NOT SO INTERESTING OR VARIOUS ANYWAY.

SOME OF THE DELETED SCENES ARE BETTER THAN THE ONES THAT MADE THE FINAL CUT AND THE FILM HIGHLIGHTS ARE BETTER THAN THE FILM ITSELF.

YOU CAN ALSO FIND THE THEATRICAL TRAILER THAT MADE US BELIEVE FOR A SECOND THAT THE MOVIE WAS WORTH SEEING.
