Too be honest, I'm surprised I liked this, or at least was entertained the whole way through. When I originally saw the trailer I thought it was an Attack the Block ripoff. The only similarities ended up being there are aliens in both. My bad. The only thing that made me consider watching this is when I realized Richard Ayoade was in it. He's hilarious in The IT Crowd, so, watching him could make up for the movie sucking, if that were the case. This ended up being a good dumb comedy. Not rocket science but followed along on a decent plot, had some funny lines and moments, and Vince Vaughn was definitely in one of his better moments, and Jonah Hill's character complimented the group nicely. The writers did a good job of distinguishing the four characters, and the actors played those roles well. Good if you're in a light mood and just want to sit back and be entertained. If you're not a sci-fi fan...maybe try something else. If you're not into a light comedy pallet cleanser to balance out some of the deeper or more complex film / TV, definitely not for you.

This movie isn't designed for artist views and pretentiousness. It's meant to be crass and stupid and entertaining. It provided me with more laughs in a movie I've had in so long. Just because you find this movie funny doesn't make you stupid it just means you've got a decent sense of humour and don't take life too seriously where a movie is concerned. Jonah Hill is one of the best in this movie complimented with Vince Vaughn's stone cold faced humour. I loved it. I would watch it again. Feel down watch this for just the stupidity and laughter.

First time I've written on here, because I just watched the watch on the TV (didn't bother at the cinema because of the bad reviews) and it was good fun. A good fun movie, made me laugh out loud at least three times, had some good jokes. Nothing serious, a lads movie e.g. full of sex jokes which isn't normally my sort of thing, but this had some good ones, as well as some other good jokes/scenarios, didn't drag, a hell of a lot better than some higher rated comedies. I think it should be 6.8 out of 10 on IMDb, currently at 5.8. It's not a 7 movie for me, as that's for exception films, but this is sturdy entertainment and as I can't see how to rate something 6.8 I have rounded it up.
