    The movie is awfully close to a video game with its own specific rules, but its characters are appealing and funny, "Aliens" doesn't have a mechanical feel that drags down most video-game movies.

    Performances are unremarkable but acceptable pretty much across the board, and the vocal talents -- particularly Thomas Haden Church as the belligerent Tazer and Josh Peck as the lovable Sparks -- are well cast.

    Aliens in the Attic is conveyor-belt family product, an action/adventure/sci-fi/comedy made from the bland corporate DNA of Nickelodeon and the Disney Channel. It appears designed for families who never leave the mall.

    The protagonist tanks his grades because he does not want to be perceived as a brainiac. The movie itself does not fake being dumb. It is. The acting is abysmal, the script genuinely idiotic and the, let's say "laughs" can be numbered on the fingers of one hand. Worst of all - they totally wasted Andy Richter - a genuinly funny guy.… Expand
