Total Fun and silly
Added 11/21/2009
I loved this cult-like film when it was first released.
Do not expect logic, sense, or reality. Remember it's a movie about MORONS, and it lives up to it's title splendidly.

Silly, silly fun!

This is not a high-brow comedy, but neither is it the typical low-brow stuff being produced today that focuses on bodily functions and groin punches. This is British comedy, which means that it actually has some wit, in between the sight gags. If the comedy of Peter Sellers, the absurdity of Monty Python, and the sheer outlandishness of the Rocky Horror Picture Show appeal at all to you, then this movie will tickle at least one funny bone.

Pretty weak
Added 4/2/2003
Was looking forward to seeing this with two of my favorite British comedians (Smith and Jones), but this was VERY weak....maybe one genuine laugh throughout. Mostly lackluster comedy will be forgotten minutes after viewing.

Stupid, silly, plotless, yet good.

Who needs acting, plot, or great editing in a comedy. Obviously this film doesn't, all it needs is jokes. This is probably to silly for the movie critic, but for all the normal people out there who aren't stuck up about the movies they see, this is a ral treat. A trio of very dense aliens abandons their equally dimwitted pal Bernard and crashes their rented spacecraft in England, where they become pop media icons under the guiding hand of a disgruntled television employee. Bernard eventually finds his way to America, where his claims of interplanetary pedigree land him in an asylum. This satire of science fiction and societal quirks from British television comics Smith and Jones and director Mike Hodges brings us a hilarious yet silly movie that is quite enjoyable. See it!

"HIGHLY INTELLIGENT!?"

I laugh all the way to the end of this possible cult-classic english comedy! Mel Smith plays the alien who was left behind and falls into earth. There's a hilarious part occur with him and a trash barrel which he think it's a earthling. The other aliens fall into other mishaps and enjoy "LOOB" beer! and remember it's a pen "P......E....... uhhh....n..n!..
