A memorably odd, mellow affair.

It's mumblecore in space, and If that sounds like your thing, then Mars can be a rewarding experience.

The United States's first couple being a cigar-smoking cowboy and his intellectually challenged wife is one anachronism we could all live without.

Imaginative, visually stylish and refreshingly character-driven albeit somewhat contrived. It could have been much more brilliant and compelling had it taken more risks by increasing its satirical bite.

More like a college class project than a feature film. Cute but uninspired.
