John Carter Movie Review

A Review of the movie John Carter by Marie Parsons (@mantoniap)

John Carter is a happy entertainment, and I recommend it. Set aside thoughts of the Burroughs novel upon which the movie is adapted, and just enjoy the movie.

I was predisposed not to like the movie, I confess. Edgar Rice Burroughs was one of my three favorite SF authors, growing up. I read all the Barsoom books, more than once, and recently re-read A Princess of Mars. I had visualized the characters in certain ways, I loved the flow of the story, and I wanted the movie to be true to the novel.

Trailer: 'John Carter' (You know, the guy on Mars, er Barsoom)

In keeping with the previous post, here's a trailer for a 2012 release. I can't say I know much about the character, but this looks kinda cool.

For those who do not know John Carter was one of Edgar Rice Burroughs creation along with his more famous Tarzan. Hopefully Disney puts of Mars back in the title where it belongs. Anyway the trailer looks good.
