    Mars Needs Moms!

    Reviewed by

    For some reason, I’m feeling generous and I’m giving this movie a 2,5/5. Not really because I can think of a lot of things the movie did well, but mostly because I heard so much plain awful things about it that my expectations were just impossibly low. Even then I could recognize that the plot feels padded, with several scenes being included seemingly only to show off the technology as the characters fall downpipes and chutes (which would have looked great in 3D, but otherwise just feels excessive) I also felt that choices made to make the plot more lively, like having the Martian character Ki talk in 1970's lingo just doesn't work. Like at all. It has a few moments with heart, as we can all relate to feeling guilty about being nasty to our mom at a certain point, but the movie doesn't go far enough with any of its characters or ideas. This needed to have more bite to make it stand out, or more laughs, or more excitement. It needed more something because there’s not much here. It isn't total trash and it's pretty harmless but it's really just a forgettable family film. (2-D version on Blu-ray, September 11, 2012)
