In spots, this was a very funny movie; but it was intended to be a serious science-fiction film. It might not be as bad as Plan 9 from Outer Space, but it sure is close.
Tommy Kirk finds out that life without mouseketeer ears can be very cruel. He is cast as. Martian who falls in love with an earth girl eerily resembling Annette Funicello (but better-looking and sexier).
I had no idea that Martians wore wet suits and earphones. They must have spent a fortune on production values. The spaceship is quite impressive as well. I have seen grade-school videos made with better production values. The direction (if you can call it that) was painfully inadequate, and the acting was worse.
The only good part of the film is that it offer occasional belly laughs. I can actually recommend you see it for ten minutes or so, and then fast-forward to the last five thrilling (only kidding) minutes to see the throbbing conclusion. The reain was necessary to make the actress look like she was really crying. I believe Mr. Kirk (as he is credited) was better off staying at the club.
