Milo (Mars Needs Moms)

Milo is the main protagonist of the 2011 computer animated science fiction adventure film Mars Needs Moms.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He is a unlikable brat who was being a jerk to his mother.
 * 2) Aside from being a selfish little twerp, his only personality trait is liking zombie movies.
 * 3) He breaks his mother's "No broccoli, no TV" rule by feeding it to the cat and watching TV when he was supposed to eat it.
 * 4) He has an argument with his mother after she sets him chores to complete over the summer when he wants it to be fun.
 * 5) To make matters worse, he says one line that's so disrespectful and it hurts his mom's feelings, that you'll hate him (or want him to get comeuppance) throughout the movie. He says that his life would be better if he didn’t have a mom at all, which is the most heartless thing a kid could ever say to their own parent, even holding for a good few seconds on how much those words hurt his mother. I’m sorry, we’re meant to root for this guy?
 * 6) His voice is very annoying and doesn’t really match his age, as he sounds a bit too old.
 * 7) Once he goes to Mars, he basically drops any personality and just starts stating the obvious while occasionally saying nonsensical statements.
 * 8) His descriptions of his mother are completely askew, where to him, she‘s nothing more than strict, a cleaner, a dinner maker, and someone who takes him to Disneyland...and yes, he really says that.
 * 9) He is disagreeable to almost every rule his mom tells him.
 * 10) He is unable to grasp the easiest information. For example, when Gribble explains in full detail why he’s on Mars and says why he was never able to see his mother again, Milo literally says “what do you mean?”.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He decided to apologize to his mother, but when the aliens kidnap her, he risked his life to save her, showing that he truly cares about her.
 * 2) Speaking of that, at least Milo did apologized to his mom for what he said to her earlier, but that still doesn't excuse the long scene from Number 4. Then again, he said that he was sorry for everything that was wrong of himself, and redeemed himself in the end.
