I will get on to the actors, which are a very talented bunch. Vincent Canby of the New York Times killed this movie with the following: The stuff that comes in between is humorless comic-strip stuff about a conspiracy so widespread that you finally realize that the only people in the country who don’t know about it are the three astronauts, a minor space employee, one unreliable television reporter, an eccentric crop-duster, owner of the lovable biplane, and the members of their immediate families. It gets no love from Rotten Tomatoes with a 61 percent on the Tomatometer. This film has a rather low rating of 6.8 on. This movie fits in well with the general mistrust of the government following the Watergate mess, the pardoning of President Nixon, an un-elected president, and the 1976 election. This is a fantastic conspiracy theory movie about an aborted flight to Mars and the cover-up. Some people believe the moon landings were faked. ![]()
