So you look at this movie and you say, "this has got to suck". Me too. Then I watched it. Words can not describe how funny this movie is. It's highly quotable and I've taken it on myself to throw several movie nights to introduce my friends to it. It's just one of those movies that fell through the cracks because it doesn't star one of the "hollywood elite" or pander to mainstream America. Do yourself a favor and see this!

Wow!! This movie is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen! It was on HBO (or some other channel) and I was bored so I watched it. After the first minute, I knew had to TIVO it. I watched it two times that day because I had to force my roomates to watch it. It is laugh out loud funny and Diedrich Bader and Chris Parnell are perfect. They play two aliens from the planet Kabish aka Cabbage Land who are sent to behead every human on Earth. The catch? They have two days. Of course they are not as smart as they think they are and feel that it will be an easy mission. Buy this movie, you will not regret it!!!!

"That cow will pay for its insolence!" This movie is such a train wreck you have to see it more than once to understand and appreciate the overall hilarity of it all. I loved it!! But that doesn't mean much.

This is a cheesy, campy cult movie. If you are looking for high art, move on. If you want a stupid laugh, it delivers. The plot is meant to be preposterous, the acting overdone. Plant-based aliens from the planet Kabij with a Napoleon complex come to Earth to behead 6 billion people in 2 1/2 days armed only with swords the size of cocktail skewers? "NOT A PROBLEM!" A commentary on mindless optimism. And it stars Sock from the TV show Reaper in a role sure to make him blush for years. My family is turning it into a sort of Rocky Horror--we invite reciting the lines and audience participation. "BOW DOWN!"

Silly, stupid fun. Great viewing for a party. Tory Spellman in a role suited to her talent level. Unfortunately, the them song tends to stick in your head *laugh* though it is nice to hear Martha Davis again.

I love this movie. I know many people will find it too silly or poorly written to like but you have to give it a chance. The story of 2 aliens coming to earth to cut off every persons head in 2 days is just absurd. Especially when their swords are shrunk to the size of cocktail picks. However, they never give up and when they fall for the local unibrow sisters, it's just too much. Filled with many classic lines and an ocean of Zima, this is a classic. "That cow shall pay"

No, not really.

This movie involves an alien race of beings who have tremendous confidence but lack competence on a mission to conquer Earth. To compound this, the transport method they use inexplicably changes them to be less effective as they travel to Southern California to begin the slaughter of Earthlings.

The jumpsuit wearing protagonists struggle to complete their task before they are punished and become entangled in small time Earth drama and social customs as time runs out. When Earth is not adequately destroyed, the Great and Powerful Croaker is sent to punish them, who promptly gets entangled in the same way. Croaker's interaction with a restaurant assistant manager are absolutely hilarious.

This movie relies on ridiculousness to be funny, but also adds a strong streak of "hint at the back story" to keep it interesting. (In the same ways that Buckaroo Banzai has little plot points to make the imagination run.) So be ready to put away highbrow expectations before sitting down to watch this.

This movie was recommended to me as one of the funniest movies I will ever see in my life. Horrible acting & even worse script. After watching it the first time, I thought I should have watched it drunk. Would be much funnier. Wine colored Onesies. Tyler yelling all the time. A Tori Spelling look-a-like. Watching it drunk made it worse. I'm giving it 2 stars because of the Onesies. Maybe you need to be high to laugh at this. There's having a dry sense of humor & then none. Deidrich & Chris are funny guys when they have quality stuff to work with. Just wish they would have.

The first half of this movie has an occasional laugh, but as several people have said, the jokes are repetitive and it does have a SNL-skit-stretched-out-too-long sort of thing going. It just seems to be trying too hard to be funny. I actually turned it off halfway through and almost gave up on it. Later, I decided since I paid $11 for it, I should finish it. Then Tyler Labine shows up. I laughed until my stomach hurt. The eyebrow women. The infomercials! It's like they took all the funny out of the first half and put it in the second half. Here's my advice: during the first half, microwave some nachos, drink a couple beers, chat with your friends who can't believe you made them sit through it. Then when Tyler Labine is unceremoniously dumped onto the Earth, settle in and watch the rest.

Think of the worst SNL skit that you ever saw, stretch it to 90 minutes and you've got my opinion. Buy "Monarch of the Moon" for a LOT more laughs!
