Story: There's no originality whatsoever. Aliens attack Earth, proving to be resistant to conventional weaponry, and an armored hero comes to fight them. Sounds like Tekkaman Blade to me! Mars is totally rushed, with no plot twists whatsoever (other than a really lame twist ending.) The action scenes suck, and there is no suspense.
Art: Not that bad, but not memorable. However, Mars has very little animation, even in its "action" sequences. The characters all look generic (but I could have sworn one of the girls looked like Asuka Soryu Langley) and both the aliens and armored hero look like Power Rangers rejects. When one girl gets her head blown off, transparent cherry Kool-Aid flies into the air without landing on anything. That's how bad the animation is.
Sound: I figured that the director couldn't afford quality music, so cue public domain songs. Most of the OVA lacks music, and the music that it does have never really caught my attention. The voice acting is very forgettable.
Characters: So cookie-cutter generic that the only name I remember from this OVA is Takeru, and that's still a generic name. You could easily replace him with any Power Ranger or Tokusatsu hero and not know the difference. None of the characters have any outstanding personalities.
Enjoyment: Are you kidding me?
Overall: Mars of Destruction...needs destruction. *I throw Metal Man's Metal Blade at the DVD, bisecting it*
