Leofwine_draca EARTH GIRLS ARE EASY is a film that's all over the place, trying to please everybody all of the time, and as we know that's a mission that's doomed to fail from the outset. What this strives to be is a colourful, bright and breezy sci-fi comedy with an all-star cast riding high at the peak of their careers. What it turns out to be is a mess of stupid dialogue, dumb comedy situations, and a general lack of cohesion all round.I was hoping this would be a musical along the lines of LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, and yet as it turns out the songs are few and far between and seem to have been included just to pad out the running time. Geena Davis is given little more to do than parade around in either her underwear, her nightdress, or a bikini, and even though she looks great this film hardly stretches her acting abilities. She plays a frustrated housewife who embarks on an odd adventure when a spaceship containing three aliens crash-lands in her swimming pool.Jeff Goldblum plays the lead alien and is probably the best actor in this, adding some of his kooky charm, even though he isn't given much to work with all things considered. A pre-fame Jim Carrey plays another of the aliens and is irritating as ever, making weird noises and doing stupid stuff all the while, like an overactive child. The special effects are adequate, but there's no real content here, no lessons learned. The whole film is just an example of '80s excess at its worst.

gavin6942 A spaceship with three furry aliens lands in the swimming pool of a California girl (Geena Davis), so she makes friends with them.This is a pretty great 1980s film, with all the fun and cheese you could ever possibly want. The humor is of a variety rarely seen anywhere, and especially not outside of this unique decade.Jim Carrey -- before he became the big star he is today -- is a nice treat. But the real mystery here in Jeff Goldblum. The film presents him as though he is the most handsome man who ever lived. Maybe aliens give off strong pheromones or something, but Goldblum cannot be considered a "hunk" by anyone's definition... can he?

Roland Jakobsson (rolandddd) This 1988 film reunites the lovers from The Fly, Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis, under completely different circumstances. The Fly is a movie with very dark themes, but Earth Girls are Easy is a very light-hearted comedy with a few songs in it.The ridiculous plot centers around three furry aliens who land in Davis's swimming pool, and subsequently get a makeover so that they look just like humans. They soon turn out to be well-behaved and nice and go on to charm everyone, including Davis.The acting is over-the-top, Davis especially delivers a terrible performance, and Jim Carrey does no better in an early role. However, the movie is colorful and charming, and its cheesy 80s soundtrack ensures it has a cult following.Decent entertainment, but by no means a good movie.

Mixxy_Mona Throughout this film I had no idea who this was made for. It has a PG rating, though the whole movie is basically about hooking up with alien guys. There's also scenes of adultery, some sexual nudity, and references to drug use. This movie makes women seem like adult little girls who don't know what they want and allow people to use them. It makes men look like shallow sex addicts who care about nothing else. I was a little insulted that they would expect me to suspend my disbelief when they took the aliens to a salon and made them look just like attractive beach guys, I mean come on. There are also random song and dance numbers thrown in the midst of this romantic slapstick comedy love story thing. This is definitely NOT for kids, and seems really vapid and immature for adults. I didn't like any of the characters either, which made this movie feel lifeless and uninspired.
