Mars Apocalypse

Where to begin. Looks like interior of spacecrafts are made of plastic milk crates. Spandex and welding helmets for space suites. The defibulator glove with aligator clips. The close ups of the 'space helmets' with God awful details. I always thought Flash Gordon had corney special effects. Flash Gordon is light years beyond what this film has considering resources and technology available. My advise, don't waste your time like I did unless you want a good laugh at horrible effects.

Seldom will you see a more flat, lifeless attempt at filmmaking than this. Dreadful acting, static camera work, wildly fluctuating and jarring scene segues.....it's almost comical....almost. The CGI is cheap and two dimensional, constant disjointed reaction takes, you may have guessed by now I didn't like it much. Absolutely no redeeming quality to this massive stink bomb.

This movie had about the same budget as any given old-school Power Rangers episode, but with worse acting and even worse special effects. I feel sorry for the creators of it, because they seriously lack talent at what they do. Asylum has a long history of shitty movies, and quite honestly, I don't how how they can afford to keep making garbage like this. All of the actors were disinterested in their roles, and you could almost read the "man this movie is crap, when do I get paid?" expression on their faces. As for the script itself...if you were to give a child a box of crayons and a handful of paint, I promise they could create a better script than this. It's truly embarrassing that this movie even passed the brainstorming stages.

1/10

The cast of this movie came straight from the Steven Seagal acting school. Some of the actors sounded like they read the whole script in one tone without taking a breath. Even the editing was made to appear like a Seagal movie by speeding up scenes to make it look faster than it was, but instead making it look like the camera was jammed when filming. That style didn't work in 1980 why would it work in 2015. One person is holding a rope attached to another. One is in a still environment the other is in tornado conditions. Even Arianna Afsar couldn't make this movie watchable. It was produced in a weekend to try and cash in on the Martian buzz.

I totally understand everyone not being really smitten by what they saw. Well almost everyone I reckon. You either cut this some slack or better not watch it at all. It does have a couple of familiar faces in it (so I do know that at least some of the people involved do know how to act - though you couldn't tell by watching this I reckon - bad accents and all included at times) ... maybe that is something that might sway you to watch this.

Either have some low budget love or do yourself a favor and do not waste your time. I've seen worse movies (yes I have, even if you don't believe that) ... so there's that
