An anthropologist from an alien planet provides voice-over commentary for a documentary look at human courtship, mating, and reproduction: "complex, perverse, tragically beautiful: the earthbound human." The commentary gets some of the details comically wrong (explaining the slap on a newborn's back: "they don't like the looks of the child so they beat it"), but gets right the overall idea.

An anthropologist from an alien planet provides voice-over commentary for a documentary look at human courtship, mating, and reproduction: "complex, perverse, tragically beautiful: the earthbound human." The commentary gets some of the details comically wrong (explaining the slap on a newborn's back: "they don't like the looks of the child so they beat it"), but gets right the overall idea. We follow Billy and Jenny from their meeting at a club, initial misunderstandings, his losing her phone number, finally connecting, walks on the beach, soulful talks, meeting each other's parents, friends' advice, and the gradual taking of the relationship to new levels.
Leave your thoughts about The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human.
| Los Angeles TimesKathleen CraughwellThe film's greatest strength is the deadpan narration of Hyde Pierce. |
| New York PostLou LumenickA witless and vulgar romantic comedy wrapped inside a mock documentary. |
| Film.comJohn HartlHas a cute idea. Which it promptly runs into the ground. |
| New York Daily NewsJack MathewsA one-joke idea...wears itself out almost instantly. |
| Austin ChronicleMarc SavlovBelongs in the histrionic comedy genre, packed as it is with just plain silly situations that fail to elicit grins, much less guffaws. |
| Film.comHenry Cabot BeckIt's very much like a porn film without the porn, and that's about as bad as it gets. |
| User ReviewKái JTo say that this movie is a funny is a huge understatement. "She breaths heavily to show that she can bear many children" LOL. Love the misinterpretations of the alien. |
| User ReviewCassandra MReally funny movie if you get it it was on foxtell years ago |
| User ReviewMax Done of the funniest movies you will ever see |
| User ReviewPrivate UAbsolutly outstanding. David hyde pierce does an outstanding voice over. Every scene is entertaining and believible. And you get to see Carmen Electra's breasts, can't complain about that. Something for all sexes to enjoy |
