In 1996, a movie hit theatres that posed the question, “what if an alien species invaded Earth with the sole purpose of total annihilation”. It delved into everything from alien autopsies, cities being leveled and average citizens rising up and overcoming the odds to find an Earth-borne solution to stopping the attack. There was also Independence Day. But this week, we go to that very same well to see if Mars Attacks is not that bad.
