Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
Earth is invaded by Martians with unbeatable weapons and a cruel sense of humor.
"The filmmaker Tim Burton didn't just talk about a man with scissors in his hands, demonic barbers and millionaires who become night-time vigilantes. He also talked about aliens in the hilarious 'Mars Attacks!', a movie that looks like the 1990s and takes advantage of aliens invading Earth with an extremely particular sense of humor. The bold visual, the outrageous humor and the typical weirdness of Burton at the time help to set the tone of the feature film. It also stands out for its star-studded cast with Jack Nicholson (impeccable as President Dale, in one of the strangest roles of his career), Glenn Close, Christina Applegate, Jack Black, Danny DeVito, Martin Short and Michael J. Fox. But beware: you must be open to exaggeration, without getting too attached to the narrative. It must be seen as the outrageous comedy it is, with all its absurdities and weirdness."
