this be a horrible and horrible effort . but somehow it be also quite entertaining . there be two kind of sci fi represent good and bad . this go under the bad category and how . but it be and in a way and good or bad . the awful special effect be someone fun to see . or and should i say and witness . the acting be actually pretty decent and especially from bernie casey and chris connely and nick hammond . darren mcgavin be a bit over the top but do a decent job and and rock hudson isn not too bad . but the most boring and and unenjoyable part be deal with two monk who be search for god on mar . a for the overall picture and the script be tedius and and the scene be very and very long . it be a mini series and oh how it feel like one . even without commercial ( on the dvd of course ) you will feel a if half your life be over when it through . but you should have some fun watch it because a corny and horrible a the martian chronicle be and there be a feeling you will have and like when youre home sick represent that at least you get to miss work or school . work and school and in this case and be reality . this movie take you away from reality and that not a bad thing .
