Manthast Absolutely amazing

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Danny Blankenship "My Favorite Martian" was clearly before my time I never watched the series, yet I finally decided to check out the movie and it was a nice little picture that didn't take itself to serious! Even if the story was lame it was a fun adventure set in modern day California with a goof and lonely TV reporter Tim(Jeff Daniels)who stumbles upon a martian(Chris Lloyd)and this journey turns into a twist of one becoming a human form of Uncle Martin. Yet thru the film it's a wild goose chase of crazy times and travels even the government is hot on their heels. This film is a treat too for having wild special effects of cars shrinking and spaceships and floating objects! Also an eye candy treat is the beautiful Elizabeth Hurley as a sexy news anchor plus it was fun seeing her in a scene where she's tied up and gagged by the martian! Overall cute little funny non serious film with an eye candy treat of Elizabeth Hurley so zoom in and watch it!

austin316_sob So taking advice from these "know it all's" from IMDb, might not always be a smart decision, as I remember reading all these negative reviews here about this movie, yet yesterday i felt compelled to pick it up.If you're a fan of feel good family movies, I Highly recommend this title, as long as you're not looking for the Original TV Series plot.This movie was never aimed for the older generation who watched the original TV Series, hence "Disney's Children's MOVIE".With some great laughs from all characters, especially "zoot", this will bring back a dose of nostalgia to those 20 year olds out there, back to there days of transitioning from a child to a teen.Don't listen to these so called "movie critics" because they know just as much about movies as you do. Great Movie for the Kids, or for a Family Flick night.

TheLittleSongbird This movie tries hard, but completely lacks the fun of the 1960s TV series, that I am sure people do remember with fondness. Although I am 17, I watched some of the series on YouTube a long time ago and it was enjoyable and fun. Sadly, this movie does little justice to the series.The special effects are rather substandard, and this wasn't helped by the flat camera-work. The script also was dull and lacked any sense of wonder and humour. Other films with under-par scripting are Home Alone 4, Cat in the Hat, Thomas and the Magic Railroad and Addams Family Reunion.Now I will say I liked the idea of the story, but unfortunately it was badly executed and ran out of steam far too early, and I am honestly not sure for this reason this is something for the family to enjoy. And I was annoyed by the talking suit, despite spirited voice work from Wayne Knight.But the thing that angered me most about this movie was that it wasted the talents of Christopher Lloyd, Jeff Daniels and Daryl Hannah, all very talented actors. Jeff Daniels has pulled off some good performances before, but he didn't seem to have a clue what he was supposed to be doing, and Elizabeth Hurley's character sadly came across as useless. Daryl Hannah is a lovely actress and generally ignored, and I liked the idea of her being the love interest, but sadly you see very little of her,(not to mention the Monster attack is likely to scare children than enthrall them) likewise with Wallace Shawn as some kind of government operative. Christopher Lloyd acquits himself better, and as an actor I like Lloyd a lot(he was in two of my favourite films Clue and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and I am fond of Back To The Future) but he was given little to work with, and had a tendency to overact quite wildly.Overall, as much I wanted to like this movie, I was left unimpressed. Instead of being fun, it came across as pointless, and that is a shame because it had a lot of potential, with some talented actors and a good idea, but wasted with poor execution. 1/10 Bethany Cox

Elswet This is another generally despised Disney acquisitional work, which attempt to throw a fresh spin on an old favorite. The original features some of your favorite Mayberry bunch, while the remake features Uncle Fester and the less interesting idiot from Dumb and Dumber. The original 1963-1966 TV show versus ... well, this. I can't say this fared well in comparison.Without the comparison, however, this is still only a children's movie, with little whatsoever to entertain the adults, aside from possibly piquing the grandchildren's interests in watching the old series, perhaps.The star of this work wasn't even one of the main players! The star was Zoot (voiced by Wayne Knight), "Uncle" Martin's talking space suit! Frankly, Brian Henson's Muppets From Space, which bears the same feel as this work but is much more competent, is a much better endeavor, and more worth your time.I enjoy watching it from time to time, but purely from a nostalgic perspective. It rates a 6.2/10 from...the Fiend :.
