Eleven Eleven

I think I understand why this film is getting rated either 1s or 10s.

Eleven Eleven is a really fun movie for the right audience, but it probably would not appeal to anyone under about 30, perhaps even 40. If you are old enough to have teenage kids, or have ever tried to keep a secret from your partner, then you will probably relate to this comedy. Some of the humor is subtle, so you need to pay attention. On the other hand, there are a few moments of slapstick.

If you are a sci-fi nerd, you'll appreciate it more, I think.

The 2 leads both have lots of funny moments, but Krista Allen as the alien steals the show. The supporting characters are also nicely portrayed.

Unlikely to win many Oscars, but for a low budget movie, it has plenty of heart and soul.

If you are old enough (and nerdy enough), you'll like this movie. But Millennials and Gen Zs - you will probably hate it!

I thought this was a movie from 2005 but the date says 2018. Seemed to be lost in a closet for a bout 13 years.

It seemed that it was a bunch of former adult film actors and director trying to go legit but turns out these are somewhat famous actors.

It seemed that the director would have been ahead of his time in the 80's but other than that, it was sub-par in effects and the writing was junior high level.

Hard pass.

Thought this movie was a giggler. Fun to see Charlie Baker in something besides Breaking Bad but Krista Allen is a scene stealer. Love the line where she pulls out a book on Satan in front of the Priest. It should a vine. Worth a watch.

The leading character was a horrible, homely casting job. Would have given the movie a higher rating if the leading character wasn't so painful to watch.

I don't get why all the reviews are either 10/10 or 1/10.

It's a fun movie that starts with a fun concept, ends with a fun post-credits rolls, and in between, everything is just mindless fun. Silly, for sure, but still fun!

I'm normally a hard-SF fan but this movie actually addresses that ("i use words that earthlings can relate to, you know?") and keeps being silly after absolutely disarming my SF nit-picking inside critic. It was a super nice touch and it should work on anyone who likes silly comedy, even if he's into astronomy and astrophysics, like myself. It just disarms your ego and lets you have fun all the way, I really appreciate that!

Oh, and the actors' chemistry was absolutely on point. It's a stupid comedy, remember, but everything made sense, everyone acts cold when they're supposed to be cold, and ummm... hot when they're hot? The point is: they do act perfectly to the movie's tone (which is SILLY!) How can anyone say the acting is terrible is a mystery to me.

Oh yeah, the CGI is objectively crap, but it works fine in the canvas of a silly movie, "3rd rock from the Sun" style. If you liked that show, this movie won't have trouble providing you wit joy. You won't laugh out loud, but you will be entertained, that's the whole point, "gosh-darnit"!
