Mars Attacks
The Martians return again to invade the earth and restore the prestige of the Martian entity by taking revenge. Martians have made a serious armed attack and may have a cruel comedy, because the US government carried out a nuclear attack on their mother ship. Martians try to take revenge by reclaiming their prestige and distorting the world's features again without return or fear.

...a sadistically silly spoof that uses a cheesy ray gun to blow away the tropes of science-fiction past.

An over directed and poorly written farce...

Unfortunately, it's not very good.

Alien-invasion satire for older tweens and up.

Only moderately amusing.

oaded with wit, nifty little ideas and an extraordinary sense of design, but its allure is of quite a particular nature, much closer to that of Ed Wood than of Burton's earlier, and far more commercially successful, works.

Hilarity never seemed so tedious.

Just a parade of scattershot gags, more often weird than funny and most often just flat.

Yes, it's over-the-top, but there's a terrifying truth in how politicians would want to spin this or media would want to angle it.

The pinko commie Independence Day, Burton's film orders an invasion of little green men not to reinvigorate our all-American bloodlust, but to make us look like complete and utter boobs.

Perhaps they don't create quite enough deeply funny earthlings to go around, but a thoroughly meanspirited big-budget movie is always a treasurable rarity.

Tim Burton's tribute to the B sci-fi-alien genre of the 1950s is sharply uneven, but the top-notch cast, dark humor, and production values offer some pleasure.
