About My Stepmother Is an Alien

The title pretty much says it all, folks: A beauteous E.T. cozies up to an eccentric scientist (a disarmingly straight Dan Ackroyd) in an attempt to save her dying planet and falls in love in the process. Much wackiness ensues. Art it ain't, but this likably lightweight film does deliver the laughs, with assured leading performances (for once, Kim Basinger's formica loveliness is utilized as an effective comedic asset), a surprisingly bawdy sense of humor, and a riotous supporting turn by a then dewy-fresh Jon Lovitz. Good, undemanding fun. --Andrew Wright Amazon.com

U.S. Post Office stole my first copy. Amazon reshipped by UPS. Always select UPS whenever possible. USPS has stolen all of my easily identifiable Amazon packages! I have NEVER had an item to get lost by UPS! September 5, 2007

rating: 5 QuoteExcellent Movie...A great laughQuote
I recommend this film to anyone who enjoys good comedy and loves to laugh out loud. Dan Aykroyd, Kim Basigner and Alison Hannigan star in My Step Mother is an Alien.

I remember seeing this movie at the cinema when I was 13 years old...now being in my early 30's I really enjoyed seeing it again.

I am so glad that amazon brought this movie out on DVD. Dan Aykroyd is a comic genius and Kim Basigner just shines in this role as celeste.

Order your copy today...you won't regret it. July 4, 2007

This movie is pure fun. My whole family loved it. It's corny and the acting leaves you feeling like it's amatuer hour, but its fun to watch. We made popcorn and laughed our way through the whole thing. Watch it and enjoy! November 10, 2006

rating: 3 QuoteCute movie with great Dan Aykroyd lines and Jon Brant's band Siren on Soundtrack!Quote
Siren, which later had to change their
name to Red Siren (after Jon had left)
had it's 'retracted' second single
"One good lover" from it's debut LP
on this hip movie's soundtrack. Kim
Bassinger is atractive in parring
with Aykroyd, in his best movie since
'The Great Outdoors' with late Canuck-
mate John Candy. May 9, 2006
