Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome with one disappointment!
Review: I could watch this movie over and over. It has the humor most movies don't have today. There was only one problem. There are parts in the original movie theatre version that are not on the tape. But I do highly recommend it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: STRAIGHT FUNNY!!!
Review: I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS ABOUT THIS MOVIE THIS IS A HILARIOUS MOVIE I ENJOY THIS MOVIE. I LAUGH THROUGH THIS WHOLE MOVIE!!!!


Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Yeah
Review: I like this movie, but I dont love it. It has a great cast and everything (Dan Aykroyd is the best ever!) but it just wasnt what I expected. I saw it in theatres when it first came out, and I wasnt too fond of it, but now that I have seen it a few times, it has kind of grown on me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the most FUNNIEST movies ever
Review: I love this movie! After watching it more than 4 times with in a week, u will find your self talking like them. When ever I want to swear, I shout "mibbs" like the coneheads *L* This movie really picks you up. And you'll love the way they talk down to "numb sculls" (humans) Some "chewing gum" any body?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Annoying
Review: I saw this movie when I was 10 I thought it was tolerable, I saw it again on tv a few years later and it was worse than I remembered. There's probably 10 seconds worth of comedy in this, the rest is stupid. Good parts include Chris Farley with the mating hat, and where the daughter conehead scarfs down a foot long hogey lickadysplit. The stop motion creature was pretty cool too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: LIGHT! REFRESHING!
Review: I suppose I will like any movie that Dan Aykroyd plays in, that's how good I think he is as an actor. Belder Conehead and his wife crash on planet earth while on a mission of conquest.
While waiting to be rescued they begin to adapt to our lifestyle and have a child. Unfortunately they are being chased by the government who knows something is not quite right with this family.
After they are rescued and taken back to their planet, Belder is told to come back and destroy planet earth. Now he has a choice and this is where the heart of the movie is. I think this movie was good. I didn't like the part where they mocked the Bible and really didn't think they had to put that in, but besides that it was entertaining and Dan Aykroyd stole the show as usual.

Summary: CONEHEADS: a fun treat for familes, finally!
Review: oneheads (1993) Dan Aykroyd, Jane Curtin, Michelle Burke, Michael McKean, Jason Alexander, Lisa Jane Persky, Chris Farely, David Spade, Phil Hartman, Dave Thomas, Sinbad, Jan Hooks, Michael Richards, Jon Lovitz, Kevin Nealon, Adam Sandler, Garrett Morris, Laraine Newman, Tim Meadows, Julia Sweeney, Ellen DeGeneres, Parker Posey, Joey Lauren Adams, Drew Carrey, Tom Arnold, Eddie Griffin, D: Steve Barron. Spin-off of the 1970s Saturday Night Live skit has the family of cone-headed, robot-walking-and-talking aliens (from the planet Remulak) landing on earth in an unsuccessful mission where they adjust to New Jersey suburban life, and are unsuspectingly pursued by INS agents. Enjoyable family comedy is silly and odd if unexpectedly delightful, with a lot of sight and sound gags, some will go over a young one's cone. Surrounded by the terrific Aykroyd and Curtain (who you can tell perform earnestly) are over dozens of SNL veterans and present cast members. Written by Aykroyd, his daughter, Danielle and younger brother, Peter both give cameos. Running Time: 87 minutes and rated PG for some crude humor.

Rating: 4 stars

Review: Prety funny,but I LOVED the celebrity cameos, Jon Lovitz,Phil Hartman,Dave Thomas,Drew Carrey, Sinbad,Adam Sandler and many more!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Clever and silly at the same time!
Review: The Coneheads followed The Blues Brothers and Wayne's World as Saturday Night Live ideas transferred to movies. Coneheads is arguably based on a funnier idea than either of the other two, but for some reason the film it produced was less successful. The idea had already been used for a thirty minute cartoon ten years earlier, and this script is based on that cartoon. The fact that the material has been stretched to thrice its original length shows slightly with some padding material.

Ayckroyd and screen daughter Michelle Burke are fine in their roles, and quite endearing to watch. You might think differently, but for me, Jane Curtin doesn't quite have their charm, although it's interesting to see her develop some of the mannerisms she would later use in Third Rock From The Sun. 23 year old Michelle Burke and 29 year old Chris Farley play the two teenage lovers and Spinal Tap's Michael McKean plays the villain. Surprisingly this casting works. The youngsters appear younger than they are and McKean shows his range.

There is some clever defamiliarisation satire on the American way of life, the English Language, and on immigration policies. This cleverness works in tandem with the silliness of the piece to give an enjoyable, if flawed movie.
