My Favorite Martian

Tucson Weekly

DIRECTED BY: Donald Petrie

REVIEWED: 03-01-99

A creepy, sexist comedy that portrays women as either pathetic or evil, but always in favor of unsolicited sexual advances. Christopher Lloyd (Reverend Jim from the TV series Taxi) plays a Martian who comes to Earth, beats up TV reporter Jeff Daniels, then becomes his best friend and helps him sort out his romantic confusion. The half dozen companies that paid for some of the most obvious product placement I've ever seen in this comedy-without-laughs should ask for their money back.
