The Martians aren’t the bad guys. They destroyed the political class, the capitalists, the generals, and the media so that the Earth could be inherited by service and transit workers, blaxploitation icons, gamer teens, and Tom Jones.
Directed by Tim Burton
A spectacular comedy with an ensemble cast.
A fleet of Martian spacecraft surrounds the world's major cities and all of humanity waits to see if the extraterrestrial visitors have, as they claim, "come in peace." U.S. President James Dale receives assurance from science professor Donald Kessler that the Martians' mission is a friendly one. But when a peaceful exchange ends in the total annihilation of the U.S. Congress, military men call for a full-scale nuclear retaliation.

It's like Independence Day if it shit itself.
The film follows humanity's absurd and chaotic reaction to an invasion by giggling Martians who claim to come in peace but quickly begin wreaking havoc on Earth.
Tim Burton directed this 1996 sci-fi comedy, which serves as a vibrant, satirical homage to 1950s B-movie alien invasion films.
