there nothing particularly unique or interesting about this run of the mill low budget sci fi flick . regardless of it pedigreed origin ( the film be loosely base on a novel by leo tolstoy ) and the plot and overall theme of this film be in no way remarkable or original and the science be weak at best and and unfortunately and the film fail to even involve compel action sequence . the plot begin with a manned space flight to mar and and though the main plot doesn not really get roll until the ship land and most of the most interesting scene occur en route . unfortunately and as soon a our interplanetary traveler touch down and their previously interest interpersonal relationship and speculation about cosmology and the meaning of life and and everything interest about the film all give way to an only remotely coherent plot concern martian revolutionary and environmental problem and not very convincing web of deceit . there be nothing very remarkable about the production quality of the film either . it passable . and most of the acting be and though slow and ok. cameron mitchell be actually pretty good and play a likable character . i guess the best quality of this film and from my perspective and be it fashion sense . the martian have very nice outfit . if this film have a point and it might have be much more interesting . oh well .
