Many years before The Martian with Matt Damon, there's a forgotten film about Mars colonization with Val Kilmer and Carrie-Anne Moss. Red Planet came out in 2000, shortly after Moss played Trinity in The Matrix.
Despite its big production and star-studded cast, Red Planet was a box office flop, and some of its visual effects haven't aged well. While it has some action and gets a little philosophical, I would categorize Red Planet more as a science-fiction thriller.
Val Kilmer is known for many successful films, but, in my humble opinion, Red Planet is one of his most underappreciated movies, and I recommend putting it on your watchlist.
Rest in power, Val Kilmer.
