I wasn't sure if I was going to like this film since I'm not a big Seth Rogen fan. I do love Simon Pegg and Nick Frost which ultimately carried the decision.Lifelong friends Clive (Nick Frost) and Graeme (Simon Pegg) are visiting famous UFO sites in America when they come across a real extraterrestrial named Paul (Seth Rogen) on the run from a government agency that plans to liquidate him. Paul convinces the two to help him get back to where he first landed in order to call for a ride home.
This film is packed to the gills with sci-fi references from the most common to the decidedly obscure. Plot-wise, it's the same as all other fugitive movies and a lot of the jokes are telegraphed from a different continent, they're so easy to see coming. Still, there were enough genuine moments of humor to make this worth watching at least once.
