i liked the movie a lot... Very unusual story. u would think that a title like martian child would be a comedy but NO! this is as far away from a comedy as you can get! ITS A DRAMA! And actually does get really sad at some parts. So GREAT movie just not one that will really make u LOL.
i watched this a while ago and i cried when the dog died it was so sad! But its good and its okay to watch with kids over 9. The end always gets to me, to!
