Review of Martian Child (2007) by Brandon — 14 Mar 2009
Honestly, some of the user comments on here are even more absurd than the scathing reviews this beautiful movie garnered from heartless, jaded professional critics. This movie was based on a true story by David Gerrold, an average man turned hero as he adopted and rescued a lonely, troubled little boy from a hideous childhood.
The martian aspect of the movie had nothing to do with the creepy insinuations made by some users; rather, it was a coping mechanism used by the real "Martian Child" as he tried to grapple with a short lifetime of abuse and neglect prior to his adoption.
