Mission To Mars. - Review - movie review

Directed by Brian De Palma

The upcoming spate of film projects about the exploration of Mars is less a competition than a relay race. Tim Robbins, Gary Sinise, Don Cheadle, and the rest of the Mission to Mars cast need not worry about being stranded in the Martian outback for long because they're likely to find Val Kilmer (Red Planet) and James Cameron (Mars IMAX 3-D and a TV series) arriving shortly. As for De Palma, he may or may not irk the critics by having his astronauts discover a signal-emitting monolith straight out of 2001. It has yet to be proven if, in space, no one can hear you repeat.
