    Extraterrestrial can be forgiven the tangents into melodrama due to Vigalondo's seamless ability to navigate those soapy waters.

    Extraterrestrial is a comedy dropped agreeably into an alien invasion - well, maybe not invasion. The spaceship just sits there.

    Results are offbeat and amusing, but also a bit thin as the whole essentially amounts to one long shaggy-dog joke.

    Quirky, but infinitely more interesting than big-budget Hollywood cousins.
