Summary: Pretty funny but not a classic
Review: Wow! This certainly isn't a five star movie, but I don't understand all the one star reviews either. It is VERY camp and VERY silly. Maybe the one star people wanted Independence Day and got silly instead. Tim Burton has made much better movies, e. g. Betelgeuse. In fact this may be his least successful movie so far, but is nevertheless clever and interesting to watch. Yes, all the characters are stereotypes and most of them would have been familiar to '50s audiences. The aliens, however, are having a great '90s kind of time reassuring people that they come in peace as they gleefully commit mayhem. If you want something light and silly to relax with I recommend this one.

Summary: You call this comedy?!!!!?
Review: This movie is one of the worst I've ever seen!! This was a waste of time and money. It's really bad. Bad acting(I could do a better job!!),plot, and special effects, though the aliens were pretty cool. But, what's so funny about everyone dead??!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Worst Movie Ever
Review: This movie was a total waste of money at the theater. I was soooo mad at my self for paying money just to see this piece of junk! If you care about money do NOT are you listening? DO NOT BUY THIS! It has some good actors like Pierce Brosnan (Golden Eye), Glenn Close (Air Force One), Jack Nicholson (As Good As It Gets), and others. But they sucked in this movie. Even the special fx really sucked. Any questions? Oh, and did I mention NOT to but this movie? And that it really sucks?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is the best movie ever!
Review: Some people have said that this movie wasn't funny. What were they talking about?? This has got to be one of the funniest movies ever. If you have never seen it, run to your local blockbuster and rent it tonight. This is a must see. Excellent special effects, scary and funny looking martians, and an excellent cast. I'd give it six stars if I could

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pierce in a comedy role, Dr. Donald Kessler
Review: I just brought this one from you. I tried taping it off of Fox last Friday, but it's hard to cut the commercials and get it looking right. So I just brought it from you.

I loved Pierce's character, Dr. Donald Kessler.

It's a far cry from Bond. It's a comedy role, and Pierce looked like he was having the time of his life in it.

There should have been more of him though.

He made the movie more interesting. Having someone that was trying to predict that the Martians were going to be peaceful and then having it backfire on them. Well it's sort of tragic, but yet ironic.

The movie was a comedy spoof of the old Martian invades earth type movies, such as War of the Worlds.

Anyway, he was great!

Summary: The "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" of the 1990s.
Review: I.e. big budget, lots of well-known actors, cameos, supposedly a satire, but someone forgot to make it funny.

"Mars Attacks" rehashes some conventional stereotypes (black generals are Uncle Toms, talk-show hosts are dim bulbs), and for some unknown reason, everybody's TV (including the President's) looks like it came from the 1970s. The "hilarious" weapon that Earth finally uses against the Martians during the climax sounds like something you might come up with in a drunken giggle fit. If the joke's on anyone, it's on all of us who paid money to see this fiasco of a comedy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very Funny Spoof on Alien Invasion movies
Review: This is our favorite alien invasion movie. My 5 year old loves it as does my 34 year old wife. The story centers around invading martians who are violent and try to destroy the earth. This movie will have you in stitches, laughing at almost every scene and you will watch it over and over many times. I would highly recommend it to all ages.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: IT STUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: Caution: This is the WORST movie EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also I do Believe Natalie Portman is in this movie. I find it extremely weird she was in the best movie ever (Star Wars Episode 1) and also in the worst movie ever (Mars Attacks!). Sounds like something from a Nancy Drew book. Another reason is the special fx suck! The skelotens grossed me out! Mars attacks was not just cheezy, stupid, and nothing happens, it was also very disturbing. DO NOT buy Mars Attacks (if you worry about spending your money on something good)!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Where's the comedy?
Review: Mars Attacks has a huge and talented all-star cast, but rarely uses the actors. This film is never really funny although there are a couple of scenes I found laughable such as when the aliens were destroying the cities they keep saying, "Don't run. We are your friends." However, that's just about it. This film is certainly no cult classic as it is just about forgotten. I am surprised this film's budget was 70 million dollars. Half of it was probably spent on the underused cast.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A WAY FOR ACTORS TO MAKE SOME MONEY
Review: Unenthusiastic performances by Nicholson and all others involved, it must have just been a way pick up a few easy bucks for them.

Not intended to be, but still ugly monsters, over used in this so called parody of sci fi films.

Bad editing, awful screen play, bad acting, etc.

Forget this one.
