Aliens invade the big screen (in Planet 51)

This is a cute comedy-adventure film that ironically features a human ‘alien' trespassing on Planet 51, an animation brought to you by Ster Kinekor Films.
Aliens invade the big screen (in Planet 51)

Planet 51 is home to a friendly green species with antennae whose only fear is being destroyed by ‘Alien' invaders. When Captain Charles ‘Chuck' Baker from Earth sets foot on the planet their little ‘American-50's' white picket-fence lifestyle is endangered, or so they believe. A brave green teenager, Lem, befriends the astronaut and has to help him find his way back to his spaceship before he is captured by the Planet 51 force.

It is funny to see the reverse-side of things and it deserves an occasional chuckle. This is a light-hearted watch that explores the flip-side of things.

Planet 51 releases Friday, 8 January 2010.
