Dire.
Walston displays a crisp wit and blithe sense of whimsy otherwise lacking in this loser.
What we have here is a highly agreeable cast goofing around within the familiar parameters of the alien-lost-on-Earth story, to absolutely no purpose except killing time.
This is entertainment of the lightest, most inconsequential sort.
Everything else in the film, which was directed by Donald Petrie, is either cute or irritating.
Travel from Mars to Earth is an amazing feat, but not much more remarkable than reviving a sitcom that had been dead for a third of a century.
Audience Reviews for My Favorite Martian
Here is an effort wherein you feel sympathy for the actors wading through the dreck but especially for Ray Walston, blessed (you would hope) to be in the movie of the popular television series he helped establish ... and this is what they give him. Where did I put the bottle of prescription painkillers and the bottle of tequila? Have you heard of this movie? There's a reason you haven't.
Super Reviewer
Pretty funny.
Super Reviewer
Good if you just want to watch a movie and laugh - no thinking required
