MARS ATTACKS! (1994) - ♦♦♦

Directed by - Tim Burton

Written by - Jonathan Gems (based on the trading card game by Len Brown, Woody Gelman, Wally Wood, Bob Powell and Norman Saunders)

Starring - Jack Nicholson, Glenn Close, Annette Bening, Pierce Brosnan, Danny DeVito

"In this film about an alien invasion, Tim Burton was heavily influenced and inspired by older B-movie science fiction works. However, aside from the style qualifying Mars Attacks! as an admirable tribute and a star studded cast adding some appeal, this film is messy and even a little too silly."
