Aliens in the Wild, Wild West

Where's the movie I have seen in a long long time. This movie was so bad I couldn't stop watching it. Makes me wonder how movies like this can even get funded. Must be some sort of tax right off. Even for a kids show it's bad. Bad writing bad acting bad cinematography. Bad bad bad.

Oh my. Husband found this and we are currently watching it. Everyone else's reviews are spot on. I had nothing to add except that the baby alien sounds like Elmo. Some voices were clearly dubbed. Odd little movie that we will enjoy for all of its terribleness. We are surprised that no one in the Wild West has commented on the girl's exposed midriff. The "smart" kid keeps asking dumb questions. He is fully aware that they are in an older time but he asks if there is Chinese food delivery. Maybe he's just being a smarty pants but he has no inflections in his speech so who knows. I'm glad it's less than 90 minutes long.

I knew I was in trouble within the first minute or so of this film. Well, technically I knew even earlier than that since I was aware this was a Full Moon release...but anyways. The two main characters are a teenage boy and girl. Their father was played by some guy with a very European sounding name. He must have had a heavy accent or something because they dubbed another voice over his. Talk about irritating.

This is your usual Full Moon/Kushner-Locke low budget nonsense that some of us are sadly all too familiar with. The two teens end up at a deserted Wild West town with their parents. The girl steps through a floorboard in one of the buildings. Her brother spots a strange-looking device and decides to push a button on it. Next thing you know, they have both been transported to the 19th century.

As if that wasn't bad enough, a UFO crash lands nearby and it's up to the two kids to save the aliens from the local townspeople. It pains me just taking time out of my life just to type this.

The only (and I do mean ONLY) reason anyone might possibly want to see this is to see Carly Pope before she was on the TV show "Popular". Compared to everyone else, she looks like Meryl Streep doing a school play with sixth graders. 2/10

Present day kids traveling back in time to encounter a UFO....that doesn't even SOUND appealing! But let me say, my kids absolutely LOVED it. They are 5 and 8. It is a kids movie and it is pretty harmless, although they did not like seeing the girl kiss the boy. They watched it 2 days in a row and wish they could take the movie to school to watch. I think they just liked the aliens the most. As an adult, I can't think of a reason to sit through it. Not even one! What special effects -- the spaceship actually had Christmas lights strung inside of it. The dubbing was annoying, the story and acting were even MORE annoying. I had to sit through it twice over the weekend because the kids liked it. Also, there was this annoying music playing during the entire movie. When I watched the closing credits, I saw it was a Canadian-Romanian production and that struck me as odd.

This movie is total garbage! 3/10 for the fact that it has a few moments of the "so bad it is actually funny" variety. The alien costume and movements are so terrible! They only show it a couple times because they can't even make it move, and when it does they rely on weird slo-mo effects and bad music because obviously it looks too terrible in real time. Terrible acting, writing, soundtrack just an awful movie start to finish.
