Having seen most of the Sci-fi movies released since 1975, I have a pretty good idea of what makes a good Sci-fi movie versus a bad one. Most of the comments I could make have been made by others, so I won't be redundant. I will say that I think that "Red Planet" has the best space suits I have ever seen, and I'd love to get ahold of Val Kilmer's! (I love protective suits with helmets.) That said, it's a movie worth watching.
