Here's a few interesting comments from All Sci-Fi member Phantom.

Abbott & Costello go to Mars (1953)
I haven't seen this in years, but I remember trying to stay awake well before the mid-point.
The plot is a hodge podge of familiar A&C material, especially when the gangsters show up.
By 1953, they were played out and their off-screen relationship deteriorating. The attempt to cash in on the popularity of science fiction, just beginning to get started, was sabotaged by lazy writing.
It was a long way down from their golden days at Universal.
Abbott and Costello Meet Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, a better film made the same year, may be despised by A&C fans, but it had the saving grace of Boris Karloff and some amusing routines to keep things moving. _________________ ____________
