Empire
Mostly harmless. A very British, very funny sci-fi misadventure that's guaranteed to win converts.

Hits the screen with its disarmingly droll spirit quite intact.

L.A. Weekly
This very funny, very British movie -- directed by newcomer Garth Jennings -- has sci-fi effects that are impressive yet appropriately cheesy.

Variety
More smile-inducing than laugh-aloud funny.

Boasts a strong ensemble of performances. Martin Freeman is the perfect choice for an ordinary, unheroic Earth guy.
