The CGI is pretty bad and the film seems like an uneven, unfunny rip off of Ghostbusters, but the great cast make this kinda fun. Nothing you'd want to see again, but they make it midly watchable.

We have some laughs, but by the end, we'll feel cheated. We are the audience of Evolution. We don't care how you get aliens into movies - just that you get them in there. Orlando Jones, fine with us! Slap as much as you can on this commercial sandwich. We'll take the first big, rotten bite.
