Red Planet

Hardly a mind-blowing piece of science fiction, Red Planet still entertains as an outer space version of television’s “Survivor.” After five men crash-land on Mars, they engage in a series of wily tactics, machinations and double-crosses that eventually result in only one of them returning to Earth.
