I can honestly say that this is the worst movie that I have ever had the misfortune to have watched.
Antonio Sabato, Jr. is possibly the worst actor of his generation. And his acting "skills" are put to good use in this terrible adaptation of the beloved Edgar Rice Burroughs novel, "A Princess of Mars." Obviously bad acting, with a cast of the worst Soap Opera actors and middle-age porn stars money can rent, special effects that were done on a TRS-80, and Martian masks that your 3rd grader made in art class.Yes, it's terrible. On the other hand, some people like terrible movies, and Asylum must be doing something right because they're still in business. My auntie thinks the Sharknado films are hilarious, and, if nothing else, their films do keep terrible actors like Sabato from turning to gay porn, and former porn actresses from ending up in legit movies. AND, I guess Asylum does give would-be directors a chance to recognize they're not cut out to direct, so there's that, too. So, if you have no expectations, and laughing along with terrible movies is your thing, who am I to discourage you?
i herd this movie wasn't good by one source. i didn't hear about it till 2010. I've been waiting for this book to be made into a movie for years,and I am big Edgar rice Burroughs fan, and especially of this series of books as i began to watch this movie just to see how bad it could have been i was in shock and angry. how could any one let this movie be made? they changed things and left out a bunch of stuff and it was just plain awful. i could not believe any one who truly loved the books would allow this movie to be made with Edgar rice Boroughs book,s name attached to it. id like to punch who created this movie in the face and the acting was terribly horrible. the special effects where horrible and there was nothing good i could say about this movie who they casted as the princess was the worst actor of all oh my goodness really you got to be kidding me. there is still hope that a real movie worth being made will happen it is just a disappointment that they wont be able to use this name for the first movie of what should be a series of movies but this movie definitely did not do the Book any justice they are not the same and should not be associated with each other at all.
I will give credit where it is due, some(emphasis on some) of the models are well designed(the spaceship), the concept was great and one or two of the sets were decent. However, the cinematography does look cheap and while there are decent technicalities others look rushed and unimpressive. The story is incredibly hackneyed, the music is like a rehash of something else(can't place my finger on it right now) the script is awful, the characters are clichéd(especially the villains) and the acting is pretty dire with Antonio Sabato hammy in the lead and Traci Lords bland and perhaps miscast as Dejah. The sword fight is nothing really to rave about, and the ending is in one word craptacular. Overall, pretty awful but somewhat watchable for its cheesiness. 3/10 Bethany Cox
