My Favorite Martian
Ambitious television reporter Tim O'Hara stumbles upon a martian whose spaceship has accidentally crashed on Earth. Thinking this is his ticket to a Pulitzer Prize, Tim makes plans to expose the martian, who, posing as Tim's Uncle Martin, takes human form and has plans of his own. In fact, all of Tim's efforts to divulge the truth are systematically thwarted by the resourceful alien, who ultimately recruits Tim to help him repair his ship for a return to Mars.
Is it right for your kids? A rating tells you what a board thought. It does not tell you whether your eight year old will be bored, or whether there is one scene you will be explaining in the car afterward.
We are building the answer families actually want: the honest take from households you know, matched to the ages of the children in your house. Ask for early access.
Before you press play
Length: 94 min - a standard movie night
No content flags came back for this one. That is not the same as "nothing in it" - it means nobody has tagged it yet.
These come from what the film is tagged with, not from a rating board. They are a heads up, not a verdict, and they are no substitute for a parent who has actually seen it. That part is coming from families you know.
Where can you watch it tonight?
Streaming rights change constantly. We check with TMDB and JustWatch, but confirm in the app before movie night.
