Carlos Aguilar Variety A gripping, heady and refreshing 2D animated take on the perils of man and machine coexisting... May 3, 2024 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News “Mars Express” moves like a wrecking ball and sports the polish of a big-studio animated production, but has a storytelling arc that’s far more ambitious than the average Hollywood blockbuster. Rated: 3.5/4 May 2, 2024 Full Review David Ehrlich indieWire Mars Express doesn’t pretend that our concerns [about AI] are out of place, but it breathes new life into its formulaic genre by focusing instead on what technology might want for itself. Rated: B May 1, 2024 Full Review Grant Watson Fiction Machine Périn may be working under the shadow of Scott and Oshii, but brings enough new and innovative ideas to the table that Mars Express can comfortably stand on its own. Rated: 8/10 Jun 25, 2024 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness ... starts simply and ends cosmically, diametrically opposed in concept until one experiences the journey. Only then can the audience truly understand the connection between philosophy and execution. Rated: 3.5/5 Jun 19, 2024 Full Review Tara McNamara Common Sense Media Whether the movie's ideas are original or borrowed, Périn does take the story in a new direction, one that's meant to leave viewers pondering our own human limits and failings.

eric m Mars Express was a really great film. Creative and captivating story showered in a beautiful and dreamy soundtrack. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/13/24 Full Review WPJ Fandango SUCKS! Sold me ticket to a invalid time slot that was also invalid. Way to go. Will never order from Fan-dingle-berry again. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/09/24 Full Review Andrei One of the cyberpunk movies I’ve seen in a long time. First thing that rivals Ghost in the Shell in its depth and world building. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/08/24 Full Review Kelvin G Great mystery story and unique and fluid animation. The voice acting was also very good. The final act felt a bit rushed and I didn't completely understand the end but it was definitely a solid watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/07/24 Full Review Mark C It was pretty good. Good storyline. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/05/24 Full Review Juan Sanmiguel It is exploring the idea of what responsibility we have to our creations. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
