Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Helloturia I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

fluffset If you guys read all my reviews before regarding a japanese movie based on manga. I always make comparison & not happy with the adaptation (except one, Ore Monogatari). But this one, because I never read the original source, I guess its a good interesting sci-fi movie! About a group of human with added superpower versus humanoid super strength cockroaches! (Really?) . I think its really good, with all the cool suit. Fighting scene whatsoever. Its quite enjoyable. Its like watching an anime in live action version. Its so japanese like all japanese movie you ever watch. They have their own style, no one can copy them.

Michael Ledo In the crowded 21st century it was decided to green (terraform) Mars so human life can inhabit it. We gave it moss and cockroaches. A crew of selected criminals and others go to Mars in 2599 to eliminate the roach problem. When they get there, they discover the roaches are large, humanoid, and aggressive. Rather than just kill them with conventional weapons, the crew resorts to injecting themselves with the DNA of various insects to give themselves a superpower as told by the narrator in order to make their superpower seem feasible and create Comic-Con outfits. No Caspar Van Diem with a machine gun...which at some point would have been welcomed.When they were not engaged in fighting, they were engaged in boring dialogue. The character building was awful. No explanation of gravity in the ship, no delay in transmission to Mars...which varies between 4 and 24 minutes. This was more science fantasy than science fiction. A lot of heads being whacked off.Guide: 1 F-word or so. No sex or nudity.

sigynnez Well, I never saw the anime, or read the manga, that I heard was number one in Japan, therefor it is very popular... But I must say that this Live Action I liked it. Finally the Japanese learned how to make nice special effects, but I think it could be better and upgraded to more modern CGI ... it is likely to be a TV movie as almost all Live Action movies are, so I can let pass the TerraFormars design.I really kind of liked it, so I recommend it.I'll have to see the anime or read the manga, to compare and make an opinion.The worst: it is very long and goes on useless moments in some scenes. There were no fair presentation of the characters. The best: good story, original, good performances (a rarity in Japanese actors whom are almost always overreacting expressions) and nice special effects.8/10 Watch at your own risk ... We are all critics, but must see to give a critic.

grandmastersik If you're a fan of the ridiculously fructiferous director, you'll check this out no matter how badly it's reviewed. If you're not, take heed: this film is a total steaming pile of dog's shite.In 25XX (I don't remember the exact date), the human population is so out of control that cockroaches had been sent 500 years previously to Mars, to contaminate the planet with an algae that would - in short - render it habitable for mankind. A rag-tag group of convicts are then sent to eliminate all cockroach life on Mars, by dressing up in Star Wars costumes and injecting insect DNA into their necks, granting them super powers.Given that the cockroach population must be in the millions - as a minimum - it's a good thing then that our future boffins can create spider-man clones, because guns and bombs, apparently, just aren't ever going to cut it.Oh, but don't worry, because needless sardonism isn't the reason for such a comment... no, it's because the government already knew that the cockroaches had long-since evolved into The Tick, and just love to make humans go splat! As you can very well guess then: this film is a stinker. There's not much point insulting the script, acting, dialogue or effects, because the concept itself is stupid already. Well, okay, maybe there is, because had this been made as some kind of sci-fi spoof, it could have been fun, but instead, I just had to turn it off.Don't waste your time.
