Simon Pegg (Sidney Young) plays the legal "alien" (or fish out of water), who's so full of himself, that he really believes everything he says. Problem is, he's almost the only one who does ... believe. A problem of the movie is, that there quite a few flaws in the story/plot department.

Simon Pegg and the ever so beautiful Megan Fox, almost make up for it all. Especially Megan Fox is quite great. She plays her role so convincing, that you could be forgiven to think, that she might actually be like that in person. Which she most likely isn't. And although there is a scene, with her and Simon Pegg, where he "has" to leave earlier than he wants to, it almost works here (if you watch it, you'll know what I mean).

Jeff Bridges gets to play Peggs mentor and there a few others, that you might recognize. Logic get's beaten by comedic moments and a very gross scene threw me off the movie ... not completely, but almost.
