Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: In the presence of profound questions, the filmmaker goes profoundly shallow.
Rotten: Mainly coarsens 2001 in its mix of cosmic consciousness and 'naturalistic' product placement.
Rotten: This film is mind boggling and stupid, a derivative piece of doo-doo that's an embarrassment for all involved.
Rotten: Mission to Mars is sentimental, corny, and at times irredeemably campy.

Great sci-fi movie!
Mission to Mars is one of my favorite sci-fi movies. An intelligent story, good special effects and sets that are more realistic than most other movies of this genre. I liked the soundtrack, as well. I wish iTunes would offer the movie soundtrack.
Oh my god, in top ten worst movies ever!
Ridiculously contrived setups for dramatic scenes that would have made you laugh out loud if you weren't so mad you were actaully watching the film. An example is the read-out on the space walkers arm computer that is trying to warn him that he is about to run out of oxygen for his return trip to the ship...it actually blinks in big red letters "POINT OF NO RETURN!" The gaps between action scenes are filled in with mind numbingly awful space travel monotony. By the time you get to the good part with Don Cheadle, you could give a crap who lives or dies. I found myself cheering for the death of everyone.
VERY GOOD MOOVY
