Brilliant writing, clever dialogue.
Great and clever dialogues throughout. Easy to miss some of it; will watch again. Recognized New Mexico scenes. Everyone played their role well. The alien was brilliant. Highly recommend.

Raunchy And Deceptive
I watched this movie last night and was nowhere near as impressed with it as I thought I would be. The writer obviously wanted to poke fun at the belief in God and use the alien to promote the foolishness of evolution instead of creation and even though most professing Christians are foolish to think we're the only life God created out there when he in fact did create other life out there, this is still a foolish movie because even the aliens know about the omnipresent God of the universe.

Fun!
Fun... I am not a fan of cursing but in this movie it was not used out of anger or a need to hurt and belittle or even just be ugly. I loved all the characters and was thoroughly entertained.

Paul not for everyone
Another classic like 'Blazing Saddles' and 'Life of Brian' or 'Galaxy Quest' - some of my favorites. Rated R for language, alien nudity, promoting nontraditional thinking and change. IMHO

Made for the Strange
I love this movie but it is not for children. Paul is one of the most lovable little guys but his mouth will get a a little rough if you have not ever worked in a prison lol. If you knew Bennie Hill you would have though he would have wrote this movie or his son or daughter.
