Overview

A pair of aliens arrive on Earth to prepare for invasion, but crash instead. With enormous cone-shaped heads, robotlike walks and an appetite for toilet paper, aliens Beldar and Prymatt don't exactly blend in with the population of Paramus, N.J. But for some reason, everyone believes them when they say they're from France.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A goofy, affectionate comedy where two aliens hilariously fail to blend in as French expatriates in suburban New Jersey. It's a lighthearted, nostalgic riff on the gap between outsiders and the communities they inhabit.
