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

| Excellent Movie...A great laugh |
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
