Rezension von McQualude

It's the plot of about one quarter of 80's movies where a guy has a hot but terrible girlfriend and after some hijinks finds a better girl. No problem, it worked for a lot of movies. And adding an alien to the mix freshens it up a bit, maybe, maybe someone else already did that I can't remember. The problem is that almost everyone outside the main two characters delivers their lines as if someone were prompting through an ear piece. Lines are delivered robotically with an awkward pause between each. All the secondary characters are standing around waiting for a queue to deliver a line and then they stand or sit there waiting for another queue. It make for a boring static scene. Ken Breese is well cast as the nerdy lovable guy who superficially could be a loser but isn't because he's nice and makes a lot of money. Max Reeves sells cute, fun, and vulnerable alien. The pacing and length were spot on and I enjoyed the movie overall, if it hadn't been for so many terrible performances I would have rated it higher.
