In the future, pollution and overpopulation are making the Earth uninhabitable. Humanity's only hope is to colonize the planet Mars by using algae to produce oxygen, but when the algae mysteriously disappear, a group of astronauts are sent to Mars on a mission to learn why. The spaceship, led by Commander Kate Bowman (Carrie-Anne Moss), is preparing to land when a sudden emergency forces her to crash-land on the planet without supplies or equipment. The survivors, including systems engineer Gallagher (Val Kilmer) and scientists Burchenal (Tom Sizemore) and Pettengil (Simon Baker), have to figure out how to return to their ship while also learning the truth about the missing algae. As if things weren't bad enough, they have to avoid AMEE, the ship's malfunctioning robot who is trying to kill them all. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

International Agencies’ Report from 2000: "NASA has unexpectedly suffered heavy losses. Its top scientists were invited to the world premiere of Red Planet. During the screening, three of the scientists burst their diaphragms due to uncontrollable laughter, one died of a heart attack and one ended up in a psychiatric ward." A few years later, Reuters published: "On 9 February, 2004, leading astronomer Czech Jiří Grygar attempted suicide. His wife told police that he had been watching an American film on TV that had the word 'planet' in the title. Apparently, Red Planet again. Could there be a connection with the tragic events of 4 years ago?"… And finally, the news that has not been reported anywhere. A film fan from the Czech Republic had a great time at the expense of the creators of this horrible monstrosity and pitied the great actors who appeared in it.

This film could have been very good, but unfortunately it's exactly like the decorations used in it. Flat, dull, red. A handy director would surely cope with the fairly decent theme and the mysterious plot and could smuggle both thought depth into the film (although Zemeckis's Contact overwhelmingly analyzes science vs. faith) and the momentum of the action. Hoffman, however, filmed a boring, slow conversation film, where all attempts at tension end in excessive predictability and all attempts at philosophical reflection in the two-dimensionality of the characters and awkward dialogues. If you add to this mediocre tricks and sometimes even awkward efforts to achieve monumetality (e.g., the final scene in orbit probably wanted to achieve Kubrick grandeur, but the result is dismal), you get a below-average science fiction.

Was it really necessary to throw a robot on Mars? Couldn't they just do it with an alien? And isn't it all really just a romance about a couple who are completely unsuited to each other? If it weren't for that sexy scene at the beginning, this film wouldn't have caught my attention at all, but Carrie-Anne definitely nailed it. The movie didn’t, though. It doesn't even deserve to be compared to something like The Martian.
