"Martian Child" is a more or less typical Cusack - so you could say. For example, after "2012 - We were warned" and "1408" here he slips once more into the role of the ill-fated family man and writer.
When the film begins, is David's wife for about 2 years of being dead and her wish was to adopt a child. Of course, he rejects them after the death of the love of his life, until he receives an unexpected phone call from the children's home - the supervisor thinks there that is the light-sensitive, introverted and very affectionate Dennis the perfect child for him. (Not to forget his sister) Despite his own reservations and the deadlines for the successor to his best seller, he decides to adopt the little guy. Soon he finds himself not only with their kindness, but also his obvious mental trauma faced - a life of harmony, emotion and strain begins.
The plot sounds more melancholic, one would not expect that recorded on a comedy. But this book adaptation is really something for the heart, offers both moments to sniff and laugh and not just John Cusack acquits itself extremely well, no, his little mate Bobby Coleman, the supposed Martian Dennis plays it flat against the wall.
"Martian Child" is a perfect blend of comedy and drama that is neither intrusive funny yet sad and impressive insights into the emotional life of our youngest inhabitant of the earth provides - which, if you will, somehow after all Martians, the need to learn one's way around the world. Despite its modest commercial success, he belongs - in my opinion - to the DVD shelf.
