The movie stars Simon Pegg (Star Trek, Hot Fuzz), Nick Frost (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead), Seth Rogen (40 Year Old Vergin. Superbad), Jane Lynch (Glee tv, A Mighty Wind), Bill Hader (SNL), Sigourney Weaver (Aliens, The Year of Living Dangerously), Kristen Wiig (Knocked Up, Whip It), Jeffery Tambor (Get Well Soon, My Teacher's Wife) and Blythe Danner (Brightrn Beach Memoirs, Stolen).
The plot of the movie is while on a sci fi romp in the southwest Pegg and Frost come across the real thing. They go on a buddy road trip to get Rogans alien to the pick up point.
Im rating this movie as a C or C-. Its not that I thought it was a bad movie but I am indefrent. It should of breen better with the cast it had. It reminded me of Galaxy Quest (also with Weaver) and thats a bad thing. Both movies have an identy crisis. They could not make up there minds what kind of movie wanted to be. Is it a buddy movie, sci fi geekey movie, sentimental movie or buddy movie. My advice pick one type of move and go with it dont try to make it too many diffrent things.
Another disapointment was the cursing. I curse a lot so it being there did not bother me. What bothered me was the cursing justg was not that funny (thats not what I mean to say what I meant to say is that the cussong was not funny at all sorry for not being clear). It was something that just fell flat. Also there were sci fi/ comic-con referances. I understood most of them but some just went over my head. There were some that I just thought am I suspose to laugh here?
My advce is to skip it and while your at it skip Galaxy Quest also.
