REVIEW
After dissecting 1950s London with a rock beat in the brilliant Absolute Beginners, director Temple takes a look at 1980s California, complete with Valley girls, dudes and aliens - from outer space. Davis awakens to find a spaceship in her swimming pool; a ship with shaggy Goldblum, Carrey and Wayans aboard. Doing her best for interplanetary relations, she takes the visitors under her wing, and in the process falls in love with Captain Jeff. The film never reaches the comic fever pitch it sets out to capture, though the cast manages to make the most of the uneven screenplay. You Might Also Like
