MPAA Rating: PG

A crew of four astronauts go on a recovery mission to Mars and unexpectedly encounter those who created the building blocks for life on earth. With Gary Sinise, Don Cheadle, Connie Nielsen, Jerry O'Connell, Kim Delaney, Tim Robbins, Woody Blake, Elise Neal, Jill Teed, Jody Thompson and Bill Timoney. [1:50]

SEX/NUDITY 1 - Mild kissing, always between married couples (only a few minor kissing scenes).

VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - Three people get knocked down by a tornado/vortex and are eventually sucked into it and killed by it (in one scene a man is twirling so fast inside the vortex that his limbs detach from his body as he's spinning). A man freezes to death and we see a close-up of his purple, frozen face. A man attacks another with a hammer and there's a small scuffle but no one gets hurt. A man is hit in the face by a rock (we see blood on his cheek, neck, collar and front of his space suit) and a man cuts his hand and we see a bit of blood (the blood floats through the spaceship and it's kind of creepy). A space ship explodes (no one is injured).
