About this movie

This hilarious adventure begins when an ambitious TV reporter, Tim O'Hara (Jeff Daniels), stumbles upon a Martian (Christopher Lloyd) who has just crashed on Earth! Thinking this is the story of the Millennium, Tim schemes to expose the Martian -- who has taken human form as "Uncle Martin." When Tim's efforts are constantly foiled by Uncle Martin's crazy antics, he decides to help the resourceful alien return home. With the government hot on their trail and a spaceship in pieces, can they blast Uncle Martin off in time?

...but this movie just didn't "gel," as they say. It may elicit a smile, but never a laugh. It feels like none of the people who made it were really into it. Pity.

It's kinda weird that they end up in the toilet, but atleast the guy didn't poop on them, :-)

One of my favorite remakes based on a classic TV series. Christopher Lloyd brings it down to earth as Uncle Martin the goofball alien. 👽👽👽👽
