A thriller by Peter Hyams, starring O. J. Simpson.
When a mission to mars is launching, the astronauts are pulled out at the last second and hidden on a movie set made to look like mars. They fake the footage, but one of the men in the control room finds suspicious data and disappears. His friend goes on a quest for the truth while the astronauts try to escape from the government.
I really enjoyed watching this. There were 2 really intense scenes that I would like to mention. The first is the journalist driving the broken car at 100mph through the city and the second is the wife of one of the astronauts trying to read Fox in Socks to her son while holding back tears. The plot and characters were really good. I thought that the style and production value were lacking a little, but everything else made up for that. I'm rating this awesome because of how relevant it is to reality and how good a movie it is in general.
