Invader ZIM (2001)

Zim dreams of greatness. Unfortunately, though, he's hopelessly inept as a space invader. Desperate to be rid of the annoying Zim, his planet's leaders send him on a mission to infiltrate Earth, providing him with leftover, cobbled-together equipment. To their consternation, Zim succeeds in setting up a base on Earth and infiltrating human culture, posing as a human child as he plots the planet's downfall. Only Zim's archnemesis, Dib, recognizes that Zim is an alien, and of course, nobody believes Dib's claims.

What critics compared Invader ZIM to

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie poster
He sounds like a grown man channeling a child from a '90s Nickelodeon cartoon (think Invader Zim), and it works for his adorable character model.

…even “Invader Zim” makes its alien conqueror a villain…

His bulging green noggin looks like what happens in Invader Zim when Zim gets hit in the head and one of his fake eyes falls out.
