If you want to see a low budget film that works, this is the one. There are some humorous moments that are skillfully accomplished. A job well done say I!
The part I thought was strangest is, that professional art thief fooled so many people without being questioned. "FBI, CIA, take your pick?" Mono is a member of several important government organizations at once.
First fifteen minutes I was dropping off, not sure where this story was leading, then suddenly I got hooked.... This turns out to be a quirky movie... And I like quirky.... Quirky and cute. I'm glad I stayed to the finale.
This movie was done very well. I enjoyed the c*** out of it. I stopped to read comments at the kiss in the closet. I Kind of see that coming. And now I'm wondering where it's gonna go, back to the movie.
@@michaelbuteau4183 I really felt with the two in the cabinet and at their separation, and I felt very much like this husband (S. has just come by and my lady is happy having him here... but he's no hero helping an alien save the world.)
What a wonderfully light, uplifting movie about life on earth, about following your intuition and your heart, and not to mention - correcting an extraterrestrial mistake❣🤗
this movie is from 2004. I sincerely hope Cara Buono had a vibrant, fulfilling career for the last 20 years. What an absolutely lovely creature to behold. Right up there with Marissa Tomei. Great little movie. Bravo to ALL involved.
She is a very good actress. Cara captivated me… Jonah was suited for the part. I was drawn right into the story. No TV 45 years, last movie five years ago. I totally enjoy this!
Excellent film ! The only problem was in the soundtrack. Music / background sound level was very often out of balance with the conversation. It happened mostly in the first 20 minutes. Sound mix mishap. (I'm not talking about music choice, I'm talking about the technical flaws in balancing the sound levels. SOME moments, the conversation got near to incomprehensible, due to those tech errors)
"... men have to listen very listen carefully because when they do ..." There, fixed it. Don't forget the "Where I come from, women are not allowed to speak," part.
This was quirky and engaging - as others have said. Excellent acting and great cinematography. Well written too. This was a worthwhile watch - for sure. Have fun and watch it again. And tell others about this movie!
I love B movies with great stories. All the cinematic technology and special effects in the world don't compete with a good and simple story. I really enjoyed this movie.
I really enjoyed this movie. I especially enjoyed the music score, which was a bit quirky and very interesting. The dialog was funny and really well written. Are there other movies by this director and/or writers that are available through streaming? Many thanks for uploading this fun film!
Does no one else notice that she is exactly like Marisa Tomei, both in her Italian American accent AND tenor, but more-so in her look? I literally thought it was her, but then I realized it couldn't be because of the overall aesthetic of the movie. (but I checked anyway). And that this is all great?
Being from Brooklyn, it's good to see all the streets and places that I travel. In most instances, there would have been a serious showdown with her family and husband, about her hanging out with a African.
Agreed! I always look at the GAS STATION PRICES! We're still using the same methods to obtain Petroleum out of the Earth as we did in the 1950's, so WHY is The World always raising prices per gallon? Oh, I get it-BECAUSE THEY CAN!!
@@strangebipedit's called privatization and the manipulated market, like Texas created a false shortage during winter and people died or paid crazy prices. The American dream.
@@zzausel , Because it's a leap of faith, if the normal humans can demonstrate an act of selflessness, and save others with no reward, then they don't have to wipe out humanity. It's a test by the so called "aliens" to see if Earth is worth saving.
Much better than expected. Good actors. Some american thruth as well... Ivory Coast? What is this...There are a lot worse SF in the net. Thank you for uploading it.
I was hoping but at the end they had to mess it up. she couldn't stay faithful. Great ,message - if you can't be with the one you love - love the one you are with.
wasn't bad. i played it on a television. nice on a big-screen. the dialogue, was difficult to hear sometimes, and on other parts, the music blasted you. the ending was a bit weak, but it was interesting, overall.
This is a great old movie. I know it's probably at least 20 years old. But it aged very well. I enjoyed it. Back to the movie, I stopped to read comments at the kiss in the closet. And now I'm wondering what they're gonna do with that.
It's actually a pretty good movie. It is pretty sweet. When I am in trouble, my wife has exactly the same eyes as the homeless guy/alien 🙂 Definitely not a waste of time to watch, it is a good movie.
