A good family movie. Could've easily been marketed by Disney with its schmaltzy "good morals" story theme. Decent voice talent. How they got Gary Oldman to do this silly movie is beyond me.

Enough classic alien/sci-fi movie references to make any nerd smile though lacks any real menace. It's difficult to take cute little green aliens like this seriously. which was this film's downfall since the plot centers around a human being ostracized on an alien world much like an alien would be treated if it were to land on Earth.

Like I said, a great movie to watch with your nieces and nephews on a rainy Sunday afternoon.
