| I
was expecting a cute alien type creature and an E.T. style movie - what
I got was quite different. A meteor crashes to earth (even this was much
funnier than it sounds!) then a life form starts to grow and grow. Cells
divide and divide and form new forms of life - none of it being cute and
lovable. Each wave of life becomes more and more of a problem eventually
ecaping into the wild. There is a blatent product placement in this but
woven cleverly - almost - into the plot of the movie.
This movie rips off so many other 'alien invasion save the earth' movies
but is able to create its own story and sucessfully stand on its own merit.
This movie is very very funny with some great plot surprises.This
film is brilliant - don't miss it! |
