A bittersweet movie of friendship and differences. No spoilers, but this movie will make you laugh, and make you cry. I loved this one.

Great Joe Dante Sci-Fi with a plot that has been ripped off too many times to count

An absolute classic of the sci-fi genre that manages to be thrilling, funny, and heartwarming. Quaid and Gossett are fantastic.

Cheesy at times but I respect it for its message of tolerance and empathy. Quite entertaining as an adventure film and make-up looks cool.

Shame on Quaid 2 have this dull nonsense in his filmography really! Lou Gossett Jr is an awful actor anyway! Just bad casting, plot & story!

I like the premise of the film and I feel it’s an interesting film to watch if you have watched hell in the pacific.

Cheesy science-fiction that fits all the stereotypes of the genre. Not even "so bad it's good"

Good sci-fi movie. Effects are dated but the story is worthwhile.
