Today’s Movie: Mission to Mars

Well, if you’re looking for a half-hearted remake of 2001: A Space Odyssy, then Brian DePalma’s Mission to Mars. I spent two hours watching it, but I don’t think I can recommend you do the same. Gary Sinise and Don Cheadle are great, as usual, but the story itself doesn’t get the job done. For something better by Sinise, try the Steven King miniseries The Stand or Forest Gump; for something better by DePalma try Scarface or Carrie.
