While Robinson Crusoe on Mars is more a kitsch curio than a classic movie, there is much entertainment to be had comparing this 1964 story of "a lone astronaut pitted against all odds beyond this Earth" with The Martian.

Prodigiously combining tricks, ranging from superimposed planes to large paintings, of extraordinary beauty, the director manages to convey a certain feeling of suffocation and restlessness. [Full Review in Spanish]

There's lots to appeal to fans of adventure stories and the film has a distinctive visual style that adds to its character.

About as good as any sci-fi adventure film of that generation.
