Review of Mars Attacks! (1996) by Vervain — 03 Jan 2019
As a big fan of Tim Burton's work, I went into this film with an open mind in spite of being aware of very mixed reviews surrounding it. That said, this film was painful to watch. It has virtually no direction and a plot as thin as 1/2-ply toilet paper.
It's as if Burton and the team of writers completely phoned it in and relied on star power (there are a surprising amount of famous actors involved) to keep the project afloat. The kitsch appeal wore off after about 15 minutes.
I can now say that I endured this movie; I will never do so again.
