"Red Planet" would have been a great 1950s science fiction film. It embodies the kind of nuts-and-bolts sci-fi championed by John W. Campbell Jr. in his Astounding magazine--right down to the notion that a space mission would be staffed by research scient ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at Chicago Sun-Times (Roger Ebert)

Mars-filmene kom på stribe sidste år – og af de tre største nåede de to dårligste til de danske biografer, nemlig Brian De Palmas overblæste Mission to Mars og den pinlige Supernova. Den debuterende instruktør Anthony Hoffmans bud på en rejse ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at CinemaZone.dk

Some science-fiction movies surprise us with their innovative visions of the future. 2001: A Space Odyssey gave us a sterile future of cold, slick surfaces. Blade Runner gave us grunge, smog, and textures. Aliens gave us war-games sensibilities and evil ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at Images (Gary Johnson)

Science Fiction features today seem to have all the advantages: big budgets, hyper-realistic digital effects, generous helpings of star power--assets their classic predecessors could only dream about. Perhaps that's why it's so frustrating that so many ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at Film Monthly (Andrew Lewicky)

I loved this movie. Or perhaps I should say the 15-year-old boy in me -- the dreamy, disaffected misfit with his head in the stars and a stack of Bantam sci-fi paperbacks as his sole defense against small-town boredom -- loved it. ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at Austin Chronicle (Russell Smith)

It’s been a sorry year for sci-fi. Beginning with Supernova, through Mission to Mars and Titan A.E., it’s been one mound of dung after another, with only Pitch Black to break the monotony. With the standards thus lowered, Red Planet actually looks ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at Philadelphia City Paper (Sam Adams)

Das Wettrennen um den Mars war schon im letzten Jahr entschieden: Brian de Palma hatte seine "Mission zum Mars" als erster erfüllt, sich beim sternenreichen Abenteuer einige Scherze und ein abgehobenes Finale erlaubt. "Red Planet" landet nun als Zweiter. ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at FILMtabs

One approaches the release of Red Planet with a singular, desperate thought: There is no way... it is not possible... it is inconceivable... that Red Planet could be worse than Mission to Mars. Indeed, Red Planet makes for a far better film than Mission t ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at filmcritic.com (Christopher Null)

RED PLANET is the fourth attempt in the last year to try to make the same storyline work and come up short. SUPERNOVA, PITCH BLACK and MISSION TO MARS all dealt with an Earth-mission to another planet, only to have complications arise, mostly in the form ...read the complete Red Planet movie review at Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
