The story is actually really clever twist of something between E.T and ALF. A human trapped on an alien planet like he's the alien. It's a really clever idea, but the execution isn't perfected. There were so many ways this movie could've been better, like better jokes and less potty humor. That doesn't mean all the jokes fall flat. Some of them, actually work quite well. Unfortunately, the best ones have already been released via the trailer. This film is not just about comedy however. This film has a share of action sequences that kept me interested. I would like to say that this film offers nothing new, but gets some things all ready imagined, and kind of messes around with it a little. That's not necessarily a terrible thing, but I think this film overdid it. Animation is not at it's best here, but you could probably tell that just by watching the trailer. If you don't hype up your expectations, then this is a film you'll probably enjoy, or at the very least tolerate. Not memorable, but it's a great filler movie that can keep you interested and slightly entertained for no more than an hour and a half.
