Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Wuchak I picked up "Mars Needs Women" recently but wish I would have checked the negative Amazon reviews before doing so, because this is a REALLY bad movie, and not in the good way.Some movies are technically bad but fun nevertheless and highly entertaining. "Village of the Giants" is an excellent example of this (some would cite "Plan 9 from Outer Space" as another good example but I disagree; "Plan 9" is not so bad it's good, it's so bad it's BAD!). "Village of the Giants" possesses a wealth of great scenes highlighted by quite a few cute girls; it is therefore very worthwhile."Mars Needs Women" would seem to be a movie of the same caliber for a few reasons: 1.) The name itself, 2.) the backcover description: "WARNING: Sex-Starved Spacemen on the Prowl for Bodacious Babes!" (which, of course, gives the impression that the flick will be full of bodacious babes), 3.) the casting of Tommy Kirk, who also stars in "Village of the Giants," and particularly 4.) the casting of Yvonne Craig.The fact that Yvonne stars in "Mars" was the clincher for me to pick it up. Unfortunately Yvonne doesn't really appear until 45 minutes into the picture (!) and you don't ONCE see her dressed in those alluring, skimpy, tight costumes that she wears in "Batman" as Batgirl or in Star Trek's "Whom Gods Destroy." Is the film worth picking up to catch a few nice glimpses of some other notable 60's babes? Unfortunately no. A few scenes depict a Martian ogling a cute stripper, but these scenes are certainly not worth buying the movie for (or investing your time).As for the production, sets and directing, you'd see better filmmaking by simply watching an episode of "I Dream of Jeanie." Not to mention that the dialogue is atrocious and the storytelling dreadfully boring -- filled with numerous scenes of stock footage. In fact, in the first half hour you would think that the paging speaker at the Airbase is a starring cast member.I admit that I laughed out loud a few times because of how godawful this stinker is, so it may be worthwhile for this alone; other than that AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!GRADE: F

bkoganbing Tommy Kirk and the future Batgirl Yvonne Craig starred in this epic film that is still quite the hoot. Mars Needs Women, bad as it is, has the good fortune in having a cast that knows how bad it is and plays it for all its worth for some unexpected laughs.The situation is bad on Mars, some genetic experiments have caused an imbalance in the Y chromosomes and boy Martians are being birthed at a rate of 100 to 1 now. Ergo the title Mars Needs Women.You know if it was strictly a matter of breeding I might have chosen some Siberian peasant women. But the Martians have libidos just like Earth folks with the same taste. Hence they go after a stripper, a cheerleader for the Houston Oilers, a college coed, and a stewardess.Kirk aims a bit higher, Craig is a scientist who dresses down, but her beauty shines through. If all goes well, these five will mother a new an improved race of Martians.Just the title alone should tell you Mars needs women is a hoot from the start. Poor Tommy Kirk was reduced to this after Walt Disney gay blackballed him. Still he looks like he was having a bit of fun in the making of it.

MartinHafer There is a place for REALLY bad sci-fi and horror flicks of the 50s and 60s. No, it's NOT in the garbage--at least for many of them. It's because they are sometimes so entertaining and funny due to their hokeyness or ineptness. For me, there's nothing as satisfying as watching PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE or BRIDE OF THE MONSTER to get a good chuckle. BUT, there are also a lot of old movies that don't quite fall in this category. Instead, they do abound with poor production values and acting but are just bad and difficult, if not impossible to watch. They are just BAD. Unfortunately, despite a GREAT title an idea for a plot, this movie is just terrible and not worth your time. That's because it's just plain DULL and pointless. Don't waste your time--you've been warned!

AskewNerd This is one of those movies that will make you laugh for no apparent reason. You have to love the movies that were never made to be taken serious. Pure entertainment. But, this film has a sense of sophistication and the appearances that actual research was done. Great entertainment, just don't dig too deep. Pop some popcorn, sit back and laugh. The only thing missing is 3-D glasses. Honestly, the acting is not to terrible for a 60's drive in movie. With this title, it is guaranteed to be one of those films that kids of today will watch merely because they think it's different. The film is a perfect model for the "hipsters" of our generation. Whatever works though. So, when you finish your Pedro The Lion CD and feel depressed, pop in this tape. It will make you happy (and hip).
