Packing for Mars (2015) Reviews
A very eclectic mix of mind expanding interviews
I had never heard of the UK hoax documentary on which this film was based (Alternative 3) but that did not stop me being intrigued by the concept of an investigation of the earlier productions subject matter. The possibility that man is already colonizing Mars in secret is valid and captivating. As a possibility, why not? We have the technology and there are good reasons for us to do so. This film is however much more than just an investigation into whether climate change is driving the world's elite into building an ark on Mars, we are taken on a tour through several related subjects, secret time travel projects, inter-dimensional windows, Tesla technologies and Vatican space programs. Packing for Mars really asks us whether we have any idea about what the heck is going on around us, hidden in black budget programs of the worlds military-industrial complex, unknown even to world leaders. It is also an exploration of the cutting edge technologies which may already be shaping, even re-shaping, our near future.
This is not the Mary Roach book in movie form
I originally saw this on Amazon prime and first thought this was related to the excellent Mary Roach book "Packing For Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void" This is the total opposite of that book. How ridiculous that a group of people would read the book ALTERNATIVE 3 and decide it might actually be real? That's like somebody reading Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson and thinking that there's 100 people colonizing Mars right now. This "documentary" weaves an evidence free conspiracy party with a barrage of talking heads. Btw, we can now teleport to Mars. Somebody tell Elon Musk. Find something else to watch that is more entertaining... like The Martian maybe.
Ridiculous at best
Packing for Mars trots out the usual suspect memes in no particular order, and doesn't even make a decent attempt to sew them into a cogent mass. No actual evidence is presented, save for the husk of a gymnasium that was supposedly a destination of teleporting teenagers (try not to laugh). In the stead of evidence, we are treat to a steady stream of random talking heads. I should have prepared a Buzzword Bingo card beforehand. It would have gone something like this... It's impossible to take a "documentary" serious when various people describe, not one, but three mutually exclusive methods to reach Mars. Why would one person be on a supply mission when others are describing instant teleportation? The only positive I can think to say about this riotous comedy, is that the final message is that people are generally asleep. This is actually true. I see it when I walk down the street and interact with random people. People are asleep, but I'm pretty sure our governments aren't smart enough to keep a secret for this long.
