Reviews

  • A brawny space opera, transplanting the conventions of Western, cop and martial arts films to the Red Planet.

    Roger Ebert - The Chicago Sun-Times

  • Carpenter writes his own scripts -- here with past collaborator Larry Sulkis -- and their "Ghosts" screenplay lacks the density, character and humor of a Hollywood genre classic.

    Michael Wilmington - The Chicago Tribune

  • Borderline-incoherent.

    - Entertainment Weekly

    26 April 2013

  • It starts as enjoyable B-movie pulp, degenerates to camp, then turns into laughable lunacy.

    Lawrence Toppman - Charlotte Observer

    26 April 2013

  • A turgid recycling of Mr. Carpenter's remake of "The Thing."
