John Carter


John Carter is a war-weary, former military captain who's inexplicably transported to the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars) and reluctantly becomes embroiled in an epic conflict. It's a world on the brink of collapse, and Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands.
Time and history will prove that this film was far better than it was credited. All that talk about how it was “so bad” it ruined an industry is problematic because we have crap that comes out now that should have bankrupt everything. This was a solid film, solid story. I think there were just a bunch of black balling and politics. As today there are processes and strategies to tell you a film is great… and you believe it… there are forces and strategies to tell you a film is terrible until it crashes and burns…. And you believe it.
