Synopsis
Man's closest encounter

Thing that makes this film work is the chemistry between Ackroyd and Basinger. You wouldn't think they would have any but they do.
Hannigan's character is an annoying little s*** though.

Daft and fun enough. Got the great 80s feel to it.

This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Thanks to this movie I have realized that Dan Aykroyd is just not that funny . He usually in his best roles plays the stiff against whatever much funnier person he is with . Also Kim Basinger is just not that fun as a clueless alien . This movie also has young versions of Alyson Hannigan,Seth Green,Juliette Lewis and that one girl who was always the best friend on My Two Dads .

Daft, fluffy fun with an oddly freaky finale involving an evil giant alien eyeball. And a young Willow from Buffy. Yum.
