This movie has a very good plot. It had potential. POTENTIAL. But they fu**** it to oblivion with their vision of what martians are like and what they do. God, I hate it when they waste potentially good movies like this one.

I can't belive that John C. Directed this crap. My God, I cried so much for my wasted money. Blood, gore... for what? Goddamn, this is the worst film ever!

I can't pass by this opportunity to say that this is the most horrible use of film-making equipment ever... But that's the closest it comes to a horror, as the 'monsters' are painfully rubbish. I cannot understand anyone who gives this 10/10.

Ranks as one of my top ten WORST movies I have ever seen. I think the sets were made by some half blind carpenter monkey. No plot, bad acting, no special effects. The cost to make the film was your matinee ticket. Do not see---Ever, not even if its for free.

Ghost of mars was an excellent movie. I don't know why it wasn't that popular but it was good. It was cool to see a bunch of guys fight against a big group of people who have been controlled by some kind of aliens. Action was good and the cast was good. Ice Cube played very well.

Lot of action in the movie but the ending is kind of wierd cuz they dont show who those two are going to fight and what is going to happen. Are the ghosts gonno take over or are the people going to find some way to destroy them.

John Carpenter is my favorite director and I have great respect for him, but ultimately this film just doesn't carry the suspense promised by carpenter's name. Hopefully he returns to his roots, Halloween, The thing, or even Big trouble in little china.

OK... There's action, blood, gore and did I mention blood? As long as you can stomache the sight of bloody faces being worn as masks and the storyline going back in time over and over again - it's not that bad of a movie. It's better to wait for it to come to video and rent it though. The idea is there but it just didn't come across as well as it could have.

This movie is like a cross between Pitch Black, Fallen, and a great big steaming pile of doggie-doo. Seriously, it sucked and it sucked hard-core. I spent $3 on it and was grieving about the waste of money. John Carpenter is a bonehead. This movie made no sense, it had no plot, no acting, terrible effects and sets, and an abundance of sensless, poorly choreographed action. BOO!

I just can't believe that garbage can be called a 'movie'?! Even my nightmares make more sense than it! Let me say - even using the 10 bucks as a toilet paper is better than wasting it on that farce...

Ow The guns, the violence, the chick, and the music. Great fantastic, I love it, best movie of the summer. I didn't have time to rate it because it got cancelled for no real reason.

I can't give this movie a 0? It was really that bad, except for the dialogue; it was sooooo stupid, I had to laugh, so if you want a good comedy, then I guess it's acceptable... ;-).

I have to believe that there was a reason that Ice Cube did this movie. Maybe he needed the money or maybe someone black mailed him into doing it. It was the worst movie that has ever been released in the last 10 years I have been a movie fanactic. Why is the question was why this movie was made. I felt like asking for my money back. This should have went straight to video as a 7 day rental!!!

[ATTENTION: This review reveals content of the movie.]
Our heroes are chased by bad people trying to kill them with a time limit to get out safely. Does this sound like the plot to Escape from New York/Escape from LA? Even quick freezing your brain pan will not suspend your credibility completely when watching this weak movie. Some of the special effects were kewl but good gore equals poor plot. John Carpenter had some interesting rewind sequences where you see what happens to different characters during the same span of time a la PULP FICTION. But the limp character development, story line and poorly cast ICE CUBE caught me thinking about my shopping and laundry lists when I should've been spell bound by this flick. If you don't want me to ruin the movie skip the next sentence where I some up the plot. Martians are a red dust who don't take kindly to Earthlings, take over their bodies and are looking to kick some butt when they encounter some tough guys who decide this planet ain't big enough for the both of us. Save your money and wait for this movie to make it to video or television.

This movie is a joke!! You want to laugh but then you feel pity for director John Carpenter and what he has become. I cannot believe that the director who brought us the classic "Halloween" would make a movie so bad that is doesn't even deserve to be a B Movie. The acting is just horrible. You would swear that they are reading their lines off flash cards sort of like on Saturday Night Live. The plot is just a stupid ripoff of "Night of the Living Dead" except it takes place on Mars. The special effects are just the worst I have seen in a long time (ei. The year is supposed to be 2175 but how come they still use old CRT monitors on Mars?) Anyway, it was just torture sitting out the 1 hr 45 min. That it took for this movie to come to it's pitifull end. I wanted to clap just because it was finally over. Take it from someone who has probably seen every Horror or Scifi film that was ever made, don't throw your money away on this movie!

I LOVED this movie. Good action and the storyline was well adapted. The acting was pretty good too. I thought the whole idea of a ghostly species thing that wanted to get rid of invaders from... Earth?! Was a good idea. I GIVE IT A... 10!

Absolutely Hilarious. No plot. Not the best special affects. Horrible discusions that end in more death. Things that make so sense. Gore behond your nightmares. But absolutly hilarious. Just to watch the stupid people is reason enough to go see it. Only one downfall, I mean common it's the future and we're on mars. But why do the heroes only have pistols and shotguns. Where are the lasers and stuff. Just don't try to make sense of it. Just laugh at the stupid people.

Stay away from this incredibly boring, ridiculous piece of crap at all costs! If you were to rent this movie, you would fast-forward through 95% of it. Frankly, I'd feel ripped off if I had RENTED it!

Carpenter should stay at home and do trash metal. Movies he CAN'T make. No thought process involved, no plot. As usual, lots of yelling, red paint and explosive. This time though there was not even a reason to laugh. What Ice Cube was on when he signed for this turkey is beyond me. I only stayed to find out how far this so called director will go in his love for gore. Not to mention shalowness. I came to a very disturbing conclusion. AVOID. If you want a good horror movie go see The Others. It will at least surprise you and show you what directing actually means.

Everything in life has what is called "filler". That is, the useless stuff that occupies the empty spaces between things that matter. This movie is filler. It occupies movie theatres that are not yet featuring blockbuster presentations. If you enjoy movies for the sake of watching them, then go ahead and waste eight dollars. Personally, I'd rather go out and rent two or three good videos and save my poor brain cells the torture of having to endure garbage like this. Let someone else watch the stuff that Hollywood throws away.

This is one of the funniest movies, OF THE YEAR! It was hilarious to see all the metal band members (which werent there on purpose, I don't think) come on to the screen and do their stuf. Hilarious. A perfect movie if you want a lot of good laughs.

There's only one way to describe this movie. It sucked. That is an understatement actually. All the so called "ghosts" do throughout the entire movie is yell. I don't know why any of the actors signed to do duch a "manure" type movie, the script must have seemed good I guess but boy was it bad.

I go to a lot of movies, and can find at least some entertainment value in most movies... But I could not find any value in this one. The writing reminded me of editing elementary school papers, and the acting was on the same level. This one is not even worth the rental fee.

I lasted only 25 minutes and then left. My friend and I demanded our money back and if we did not get it we told the manager he would have to watch it with us, safe to say we got it back.

Carpenter, maker of such classics as "Escape from New-York" and "the Thing" continues his lukewarm run with this one. However, the film moves fast, the action has that cool "Carpenter Stamp" on it, Statham, Henstridge and Ice Cube are good (Henstridge is particularly good (looking) with the action), and it will remind any true Carpenter fan of "Assault on Precinct 13", his first film. The only problem is the screenplay, which becomes stupid near the end (though the end itself is classic Carpenter). Worth seeing for fans.

I don't know how this movie made it to the theaters... Seriously... Don't bother. If you're expecting some story about an ancient marsian civilization... DON'T. It's a violence-only movie... No story no nothing. And if you think the special effects will do... Guess what... There aren't any.

This movie contains all the ingredients for the perfect movie. None stop action for begining till end right when you think its over it starts again. If you like heavy artillery this is the movie for you from knives to enormous wrenches and blades. From handguns to assault rifles so shotguns. This movie will get your blood rushing right from the start. Ice cube with an amzing performance the best ever. Take my advice this movie was beyond my expectations.

This movie is SOOOO funny!!! I laughed till the end!!! But the problem is... This ain't a comedy. And either I discovered my new telepathic powers, or this movie is ridiculously predictable. If the ticket is free, then you'll come out laughing you lungs out, but if you paid for your ticket, then you'll come out crying (Boohoohoo, I paid for that?).
