I oft times tell Ootah about Englishmens. How they give names to dogs and take off hats to womans, and march into battle, left - right, left -right with rifles on their shoulders.

It was OK. Not the original and not entirely Bourroughs vision but it was OK.
Awful, seriously a very, very bad film. I watched bits on SyFy and wished I hadn't, truly awful...
This movie had some decent effects, but man, it got a lot of things wrong. Like, for instance, the red Barsoomians are not red.
I stopped the show about halfway through as I just couldn't watch anymore.
I looked at it for what it was a total retelling not the classic
Bourroughs tale, after all it would be hard to set anything on Mars knowing what is known today. Saying that they could have done it better
and keep to the original story but adding in the method by which Carter
got to Barsoom.
