“The often realistic Mission to Mars blazes no new trails, but it's a handsome, efficient, and, on the technical level, convincing traversal of some old ones”

- Jay Carr

“Ineptly directed, badly acted, and scripted with an eye towards stupidity and incoherence, the film is worthwhile only to those who are in desperate need of a nap”

- James Berardinelli
