Meh... if you do like I did and keep hitting the 10 seconds forward button... you can binge the whole thing in a few hours and actually see a space mission filled with drama by supposedly professional astronauts acting like actors and not just fake earth-based actors acting like ... well actors. Gave it 2 stars for the attempt but every show so far about Mars has tried to use drama to suck people in rather than focus on mission. National Geographic made a good attempt with "Mars" but still some how had to acquiesce to PC and focus on a lot of un-needed drama and boring commentary. There are unfortunately, more sci-fi horror and near-hard science shows that got it better (I'm looking at you, The Expanse). Maybe this is commentary on just how soft we have become as a nation and as a world... hopefully, I'm wrong or there won't ever be a successful human crewed Mars mission. That might actually take a hard, professional crew doing hard things who say screw it and get to the barren rock with no drama (wow, kid of like how we got to the moon) ... and imagine this, no mandatory political correctness. Like it or not, those are the kind of people who have written the events of history.

Great for what it promised to be. Actually had some 7 samurai vibe and fight scenes were very well done.

Short but sweet... how it was meant to be. New star wars... you are not _the way_ we were looking for.
