You have to watch this movie from start to finish, because if you don't, you will be lost. I suspect that the writers were sitting around getting high or drunk, pitching ideas for scenes, and then had to find a way to tie it all together. It does all come together, but at the cost of watching the entire movie.
A marine in a remote area attempts to rescue a hostage. Only, the hostage is in on it and is instrumental in the marine getting wounded. The marine ends up at a military unit where he is told that all of his organs are failing, but on a 16GB flash memory stick, there is a way to reconstruct him atom by atom. Oh baby. Here is where it starts to get sideways. The physicians fix the marine, but his new mission is to go to Mars 216, a different Mars in a different galaxy. Cue in obscure roller coaster of light and now the marine is on a different planet.
Mars 216 has humans and these other biped aliens. There are some additional creatures that you are introduced to, but these are the main parties of interest. Traci Lords is the queen of the humans on the planet. So there is a benefit for taking the intergalactic ride to Nowheresville.
Of course, the two groups can't get along and of course, the marine has to be a part of history's weakest sword fighting scenes so that he can save the day. And after he does save the day, ... it's back to his original mission as if it was all a dream. Or was it? Creepy.
Overall, this movie had some unintentional comedy and was fun to watch. I'd even watch it again.
I give it 3 1/2 out of 5 Air Stations
