Entertainment Reviews:
One of those comedies that might sound like a zany hoot when pitched to a movie studio but that in execution emerges virtually laugh-free.
New York Times
Rating: 1.5/4 --
Mom and Dad Save the World is too calculating and self-serving by far, striving with a manic intensity for its own cult status. Lost on the filmmakers, unfortunately, is the fact that cult movies always possess a dark, disturbing subtext.

TV Guide
Yet another overwrought but uninspired fantasy in which all the wit is in the amusingly stylized sets and costumes rather than the script.

Little kids will find some infantile laughs in Mom and Dad Save the World, but adults will be looking at their watches during this silly sci-fi comedy.

Variety
The zany, campy, creature-filled fantasy Mom and Dad Save the World makes for unexpected family fun at the movies.

Director Greg Beeman can't disguise the lamentable script which, despite the best efforts of a likeable and willing cast, falls flat.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Jon Lovitz is alien emperor Tod, ruler of Spengo, the tiniest planet on the universe. Tod has only one aim: destroy planet earth and lead Spengo to glory. There are only two problems that stand in his way: Tod is an idiot, and so is everyone on his planet. As Tod aims his death ray at Earth, he spots Marge Nelson, an average American housewife, and falls hopelessly in love. Delaying his plan of destruction, Tod beams Marge up to Spengo and in the process accidentally beams up her husband Dick. On the planet, they discover a world of fantastic creatures, many of whom would like to see Tod removed from the throne. While Tod plans his wedding to Marge, Dick escapes from Tod's henchmen and leads a battalion of dim-witted but brave natives in revolt. Can Dick rescue Marge and save Planet Earth?
