film and "K-PAX" The plot is quite similar, but looking at it now, K-PAX is obviously much smarter. "Martian Child" was a bit disappointing at the end.
David, played by John Cusack, adopts a child named Dennis, who is convinced he is from Mars. But is he any different from humans? Just a bit of a quirk.
Of course, the screenwriter also gave the kid a little "superpower": make a Mars wish, hit a home run; eat different chocolate beans to distinguish colors... In addition, there are only quirks.
If such a story is finally found to be just another case of mental trauma, the effect of the entire plot arrangement will be greatly reduced. K-PAX is far more ingenious in this regard.
Some people say that this is actually a family movie. Yes, that's right, but is it worth going around in such a big circle? Saying that this child is unique, and finally denying his uniqueness, is actually just a weirdness caused by psychological problems. The goal is still to be the same as everyone else. What's the meaning of this...?
John Cusack is my favorite actor, and his performance is still very good. As for the kid, I'm sorry, but I don't think it's cute. David's sister is played by John Cusack's sister, Joan Cusack, who don't look alike. I still like Amanda Peet, but she plays a role that I don't know about so-called vases. By the way, Richard Schiff also appeared, Toby in "The West Wing", a familiar face.
The family part is really great and a little unbelievable... As a father, facing this kind of child, although it may be good to be friendly and patient, it still feels a little awkward. On the contrary, it makes us feel unbelievable. You get angry a few times, get bored a few times, and then still take care of it carefully, so that the audience will probably buy it more.
The key is that, as mentioned earlier, this film has nothing to do with science fiction at all.
