Summary	One of The "Big Four"
Content	There are four movies that serve as the pentultimate example of how to effectively utilize the comedic genius of Dan Aykroyd, a man who I will remain a stalwart fan of for all of my days. The movies are "The Blues Brothers", "Trading Places", "Spies Like Us" and of course, this film. "My stepmother is an alien' is the tale of an astrophysicist(Aykroyd) who mistakenly penetrates an alien world when he sends a signal from his lab one stormy night. Soon, a beautiful denizen of that planet (Kim Basinger) arrives on earth in order to convince the scientist to send the signal again so that her world might be saved. The scientist..who is a lonely widower with a teenage daughter- falls in love with the sexy ET and marries her- thus the title. This is a fun movie, filled with top notch performances by its cast (Jon lovitz has an extremely funny early supporting role as Aykroyd's brother, and future Buffy alumnus Alyson Hannigan plays Aykroyd's daughter), and a genuinely amiable wit. The key to the film is that director Richard Benjamin understands that he has DAN AYKROYD as his star, and he plays on that. Aykroyd demonstrates such energy in this film that his performance probably WAS picked up by an alien radio in a another galaxy. His character is immediately likeable, and he plays off of Basinger very well. As the title creature, Basigner is actually quite funny and charming, and the result is a fun little picture that may not set any new standards, but nonetheless delivers the goods with a solid one-two comedic punch. This is worth many repeat viewings. Add it to your collection today.

Summary	This is a good classic movie. Better than some crap today!
Content	This movie is great. I remember watching it when I was really young. Im 21 now and still love it. Yeah some things are corny but that is part of what makes it great. Its not suppose to be realistic. Its fiction! I just realized too that the daughter is the girl from American Pie which makes it even funnier. Overall this movie is pretty good. If you dont care for the story, atleast get it to see Kim and the other chicks in the movie. If you've never seen the movie, just buy it. Its about the same as renting it a couple times and you will be able to keep it. For all you people who rated it a 1 you have issues!

Summary	Simply funny! and also a family film (rare nowadays...)
Content	What's wrong with WHITE HUMOUR?, I mean it's OK to have a film to enjoy with your children, even if afterwards you consider it won't deserve an Oscar... I think it's not so bad at all (as some reviewers put it), it's not genius but definitly does not merit one star... And no I am not Kim Bassinger... I can think of a lot of movies I rather not want to see again on a Sunday afternoon. So here you have it. A NICE FILM TO SEE WITH YOUR FAMILY HAVE A GOOD LAUGH AND FORGET ABOUT IT.

Summary	I've got to get home to that good pie.
Content	An astronomer, Dan Aykroyd as Steve Mills, by way of a fluke, sends a message out of the galaxy. This causes a gravitational instability on that quadrant. An alien embassary, Kim Basinger as Celeste Martin, is sent to find and correct the problem. She is accompanied by Bag (Ann Prenttiss) who is ready to destroy anyone that gets in the way. There are lots of misunderstandings and sight gages. However the Alien learns of love and people (including Jimmy Durante). This movie is just too jam-packed with fun to describe. You will have to see it again and again to pick up the parts that went by too fast.

Summary	Alyson Hannigan-WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG!!!
Content	This is just a fun movie that anyone can enjoy. The plot-an alien (Kim Bassinger) comes to Earth to study the planet and in doing so falls in love with a scientist (Dan Akroyd). But things are not all sun and fun! Dan's daughter (played by Alyson Hannigan!) suspects things are not all gravy on the home front and investigates his new love interest. Needless to say-hilarity ensues. The best part of the film is the scene when a really young Seth Green comes to take Alyson on a date. Buffy Fans!!-You'll really like seeing Seth and Alyson together. Rent the movie if you see it, you'll have a good time.
