Critics Consensus

Neither intelligent enough to work as thought-provoking sci-fi nor trashy enough to provide B-movie thrills, The Last Days on Mars proves as cinematically barren as the titular planet.

Kate Muir

Times (UK)

Liev Schreiber and Romola Garai struggle to find chemistry in their Mars rover, while Olivia Williams keeps her exasperation at full throttle.

Philadelphia Inquirer

A sci-fi-horror yarn stocked with a winning cast but hobbled by a lamebrained script and dull set pieces.

Rated: 2/4

Independent (UK)

This sci-fi drama begins promisingly but loses its way in the Martian dust.

Deep Focus Review

The material proves describable only through other films and never stands out on its own.

Rated: 2.5/4

Spends a bit too much time in faux Kubrick Mode before switching to full-on Corman style exploitation, but once it clicks over it'll make your pulse race.

Rated: 2/5

Robinson has crafted a film that is too simple and too similar to other titles, an unconvincing rendering that fails to engage.

Just awful. It never even seemed like it might eventually start getting better. Just bad the entire way through.

So Zombies on mars. That’s a very hard thing to do without getting too crazy. I think that this movie was very “watchable”. I am a movie snob. I look at a lot things quickly to determine whether, I continue to watch. Now. Was this movie perfect? No! Others have tried this plot before.It usually winds up being extremely cheesy. This was not. I think for what it is. It was done very well. Acting,script and visuals are definitely a big factor for you to watch this movie. I see what the director was looking for and trying to accomplish. Remember! No one has ever been on mars and zombies don’t exist.
