Movie Reviews

Eye for Film - 9/10 by Jennie KermodeWhilst it requires a bigger than average leap of faith, you'll have to keep your disbelief suspended with iron chains and it sill won't be everybody's cup of tea, this film will reward those who give it the chance with rare delight.
Oregonian - 9/10 by Marc MohanThis earnestly cute low-budget effort features endearing performances from the Future Folkers, some charming live performances, and a nice cameo by ex-Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider.
Willamette Week - 9/10 by Ruth BrownIt plays out as a simple, sweet story of two alien lifeforms who discover that falling in love and playing the banjo is a better mission than intergalactic genocide. And that's a message I think we can all get behind.
Aisle Seat - 8/10 by Mike McGranaghanIn addition to being funny, the movie has a surprising sense of warmth and an abundance of charm.
CraveOnline - 8/10 by Fred TopelD'Aulaire's deadpan gravitas makes the low budget sci-fi undertones feel real enough to juxtapose with the ridiculous premise.
Movie Nation - 8/10 by Roger MooreA sci-fi comic thriller folk music musical. Even its genre is a hoot.
Screen-Space - 8/10 by Simon FosterIf it sounds nutty, it is; but it is also an effortlessly lovable study in friendship, the power of the imagination and the joy of a musical awakening.
Trespass - 8/10 by Sarah WardThough competently performed and brimming with enthusiasm, the sweet but slight fable-based film that results is heavily reliant upon its idea and less cognisant of its wavering cinematic execution, however it does provide moments of heartfelt comedy.
About.com - 7/10 by Eric D. SniderYou may not fall in love with the film, but I'd be surprised if you came out of it not feeling happier. In fact, if that happens, please watch it again. You must have done something wrong.
The Movie Sleuth - 7/10 by Michelle KisnerIt's quite a low budget film but they make everything work somehow. It does help if you appreciate B movies or 1960's style Martian films.
