Great!
This "whodunnit" was a surprisingly spirited and fun watch. I thought it would be a spoof of old school mystery movies but it wasn't. The acting was phenomenal and the cinematography spot on. Everyone played their characters wonderfully and the story unfolded beautifully. Some of it was predictable but it had plenty of twists and turns throughout the entire film and kept you guessing until the end.I highly recommend watching it. While younger kids may not understand all of it, it's a movie the whole family can enjoy. REALLY worth a watch!

A perfect send up of Star Trek (2 more)
Extremely quotable
The whole cast are brilliant
A brilliant sci fi comedy
I initially slept on this, and didn't watch it for a really long time, and I'm so sorry I did! It's the perfect spoof of Star Trek, while also being it's own, brilliant story, which is surprisingly in-depth.

If you're a star trek fan, it's excellent... If you're a science fiction fan, it's also excellent. Basically, just watch it, and enjoy.

By Grabthar's Hammer you won't be disappointed. 😁

Lavishly camp black-comedy sci-fi extravaganza. Motivated largely by their innate gittishness, Martians attack the Earth (the clue is in the title), and various people naturally respond in their own personal ways. Much property damage and rather dated mid-90s CGI result.

One of those bizarre mutants that should never really have got past the script stage, let alone received a $70m budget: the release schedule inevitably resulted in it being hailed as a spoof of Independence Day (hard to spoof something that wasn't meant to be taken seriously in the first place), but this is much more a send-up of classic 50s sci-fi B-movies (various spot-on parodies), as well as being a startlingly subversive black comedy. You can also sense Burton trying to do his version of Dr Strangelove, with Nicholson in a multiple role, but it doesn't have anything like the same sharpness or impact. A bit patchy overall - some laugh-out-loud moments and game performances, but also a lot of dead wood and characters and jokes that just don't work. On the whole, though, the fact that films like this still get made suggests hope is not yet lost for the world.
