Featured review
Well, do we feel foolish?
ALF was a milestone in the history of television, a show so funny and so great writing-wise that it simply could not be topped with any kind of continuation story, and Project ALF sure shows why is it so in full.
The abrupt ending of the 4th season of ALF has been in debate to be one of the worst endings in television series but it managed to get a TV movie six years later to wrap up ALF's story the way it was (maybe) meant to be - considering the writers of the movie were the same as those who wrote the show - but in the end it turned out clumsy and too over the top.
Martin Sheen's character is a bitter and vengeful person but he's a laughing stock and his character not only seems cartoonish but lacks its overall credibility. On the opposite, Miguel Ferrer's character is a bitter and vengeful person who won't stop at anything too but in contrast to most movie villains he really has the stamina to do so and he really shows it in the movie; maybe that's why he's billed first in the opening credits. The only one who didn't disappoint (and I'm sure he never will) is Paul Fusco and his ALF is still that same ALF we instantly fell in love with since he first laid on the table in the Tanners' house, charming, witty and very very funny. He really brightened the movie's bland atmosphere and got it as far as it could.
I can watch ALF a millionth time and still be laughing my head off and be amazed at how good this show was and is but I doubt this movie stood the test of time as gracefully. I am pleased nevertheless to have Project ALF as the story's closure and not some reboot/remake kind that we have in abundance nowadays.
