Mars Attacks!

Bad Burton Movie
Zombified - wrote on 12/27/09

Mars Attacks! was a great film, but it lacked in certain parts of the film.

Usually, I love Tim Burton films for their story, but this story was lacking. Although I got the idea of martians attacking, the way the martians interacted with the humans seemed really strange to me, as well as the idea of martians attacking for no reason. Plus, the way the martians died was just silly. Most of the jokes that were made during the film weren't very good, but the martians reminded me of Achmed the Dead Terrorist, so that was a plus.

The characters were good, but some of the interaction looked stages, almost as if the characters were forcing themselves to talk to each other. Some of the lines the characters said seemed either out of character or extremely forced. Everything seemed staged, almost forced.

Normally Tim Burton movies are good in almost every aspect, but somehow, this one was lacking. If you're looking for a movie with a strange sense of humor, Mars Attacks! might be the one for you.
