A poster for Mars Express with a bunch of characters against a sci-fi backdrop.
The Big Picture In the opening scene of Mars Express, the fantastic feature debut from director Jérémie Périn that he co-wrote with Laurent Sarfati, it becomes immediately clear that this film isn’t messing around. A door is answered, a neck is brutally broken, and a robot is gunned down. We don’t know why any of this is happening, but we’ll spend the rest of the gorgeously animated science fictionnoir piecing together why.
Mars Express AnimationActionMysterySci-Fi In a thrilling science fiction adventure, a team of astronauts embarks on a high-stakes mission to Mars aboard the newly developed spacecraft, Mars Express. As they encounter unexpected challenges and hostile environments, the crew must work together to overcome obstacles and secure humanity's future on the Red Planet.
They’re successful but, when they travel back to their home of Mars, they realize that there is no triumphant welcoming party for them. Instead, both go back to lives that are grounded in everyday struggles. Aline is a recovering alcoholic who has recently been doing everything she can to remain sober and Carlos is trying to reconnect with his family despite being estranged from them when he was alive due to his actions.
'Mars Express' Is a Stellar Work of Science Fiction Close When death comes, it happens quickly and leaves characters reeling, struggling to cope with the trauma they’ve witnessed. None of them, even Carlos, are invulnerable superheroes who can just take unlimited punishment and not be impacted by it. They get hurt, physically and psychologically, though they must continue just as we all must. The friendship between Carlos and Aline is similarly authentic in its sadness.
