GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
cricketbat I think I may have liked this film if I had watched it when I was younger. Earth Girls are Easy is almost fun, but it's too dumb to love. I felt embarrassed for the actors most of the time.
gavin6942 A spaceship with three furry aliens lands in the swimming pool of a California girl (Geena Davis), so she makes friends with them.This is a pretty great 1980s film, with all the fun and cheese you could ever possibly want. The humor is of a variety rarely seen anywhere, and especially not outside of this unique decade.Jim Carrey -- before he became the big star he is today -- is a nice treat. But the real mystery here in Jeff Goldblum. The film presents him as though he is the most handsome man who ever lived. Maybe aliens give off strong pheromones or something, but Goldblum cannot be considered a "hunk" by anyone's definition... can he?
david-sarkies This is one of Jim Carrey's earlier movies, and it also stars Damon Wayans, which why I hired it. The thing is, if you are expecting either a smart talking negro or a typical Jim Carrey character, then you will be a little disappointed, because the actors do not play the type of characters we have come to expect of them. Instead they are sex craved aliens cruising the galaxy and happened to crash on earth after seeing on Geena Davis.I personally thought that there could be a little more to this movie than there was. It was cute watching these aliens exploring Califorina culture and simply having fun. The reviewers called it a fun movie, and I agree in a way, but unfortunately it was missing something. I guess I was expecting more of a typical Jim Carrey or Damon Wayans movie, which is wasn't, but rather something completely different. Geena Davis' character really didn't seem to know what she wanted, but then that was the whole purpose of the movie. In the end though, it is interesting, but little more than that.
cafm I didn't think much of this film when I first saw it but since then I have watched it a number of times and, in the words of Beetlejuice, "it keeps getting funnier every single time!" I work at a busy video store and I'll often put this film on when I'm working Saturday night. It's always popular with customers who enjoy watching it as they browse, comment on how young Jim Carrey looks, and ask "What on earth is this?" as they get to the checkout counter. That's because its such a great looking film. The vibrant color palette with its bright primaries and 80s rehash of 1950s aesthetics is inspired production design. The film really has aged incredibly well and looks better today than when it was first released. Were it released today it could easily take its place beside any of the recent musical comedies that have come out in the last ten years.
