Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

campijnip Completely blasphemous. I'm one of those devout Christians you guys hate that can't tolerate disrespect to my Savior. When this movie first came out, I don't think I finished it and I wasn't even saved yet. Mostly, I didn't find an alien cussing in every sentence to be that funny. I saw it on TV again now 2018, and I joined in the middle right at the part where the half blind woman explained her blasphemous Jesus shirt (Jesus shooting someone for blasphemy). Then went on to Paul being offensive. Left the TV channel, came back shortly and it was on the scene where he heals the half blind girls eye. At this point, she has her faith in him now? I guess he's taking the place of her savior now, right? Disgusting. We're all entitled to our own beliefs but to release movies that mock our Savior and turn people away from Christ is careless and unwise but they'll have to answer for that. Everyone involved in this movie, should repent while they still have time. This movie is as blasphemous as 'The Invention of Lying'. Zero Stars.

theoneandonlyjimmypage Alien abduction could be funny! Who knew? Well this brash and as it were,actually horrible UNCLE KELBO like alien takes over our two comic book nuts' area 51 cheap tourist map tour that includes area 51 , Roswell and assorted wilderness adventure sites... a mad-cap well directed irreverent comedic adventure. There a couple of plot twists , and when it is just about to fall apart it nails it at dismount...not a quiver or bow out if place.Loved It.

maliki a.p I have been a fan of Pegg n Frost since their first notably collaboration in the cult channel 4 series "spaced". Regrettably this film (paul) is not as good as I had imagined it would be. The story is weak, Many parts seem bland in its delivery, some scenes are too wordy, Some lacking of liveliness and creativity. Even more those two English comedians genius couldn't afford to bring up a solid humorous atmosphere as well as they had done in shaun of the dead to save the day. Nay they look trying too hard to be funny. More over there are some disrupting performances of the supporting characters, baroque in their awfulness. The only one that caught my attention in this film is the ALIEN. To be fair paul's CGI is nicely made, smooth, and intriguing. In a nut shell this is a strictly disaster sci-fi flick.

lisafordeay I happened to have came across this movie last night on Film 4 and I decided to check it out. The film follows two British Sci-Fi nerds who come across an alien named Paul(voiced by Seth Rogen)who is on the run and is looking for his way home(like E.T). So they help Paul out and team up with another co-pilot who happens to be blind(played by Kristen Wigg)and together they try and help Paul out as a FBI agent(played by Jason Bateman) is after him.Overall I found this film funny. The special effects on Paul is very good as it looks so real looking(as Paul is CGI). The acting was great as both Simon Pegg and Nick Frost worked on this film and have starred in numerous films before like Hot Fuzz or Shawn Of The Dead.And the rest of it was funny too. Keep an eye out for Jane Lynch,Tangled's Jeffrey Tambor and The Lucky One's Blythn Danner(as the woman who first seen Paul years ago).
