Alonso Duralde Linoleum Knife 01/19/2015
As funny and silly as ever, it's even more interesting to watch as a period piece, exulting in the dream of the San Fernando Valley of the 1980s. Go to Full Review Variety Staff Variety 12/14/2008
Intended by director Julian Temple and his screenwriters to affectionately skewer Tinseltown lifestyles. Go to Full Review Time Out 01/26/2006
This is deliberately, gleefully vacuous entertainment, and any satirical edge is blunted by the film's obvious affection for its subject. Go to Full Review Stephen Silver The SS Ben Hecht 05/24/2024
3.5/5
A lot of it is still funny, and the performances are charming. But if anyone born in 1990 or later watched this movie, they probably wouldn’t understand half of what happens. (35th anniversary) Go to Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) 06/27/2022
This is a movie that raises its bad taste as a defiant banner, which will have sworn defenders and staunch enemies. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Saffron Maeve Film Inquiry 03/13/2021
Earth Girls Are Easy manages to both subvert and give in to the conventions of its time, creating a work so singularly absurd and campy, you can't not enjoy it. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s @Thiagostone Nov 2 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Lucas J. @LukeJones135 Oct 18 Loved this one, can't wait to rematch coneheads See more Carlos I @carlosFibarra Sep 23 Earth Girls Are Easy is a goofy, silly little movie that's still as fun as I've always found it to be. The film leans into its own absurdity, and that's precisely what makes it so charming. I love the movie's mix of vibrant colors, catchy songs, and outlandish premise. It's a perfect escape into a world where everything is just a little bit ridiculous, and it's all the better for it. See more christine D. @cdegyansky Jul 28 If you’re looking for a corky, funny and sweet , light , romantic sci-fi I highly recommend this movie. it’s totally weird but in all the right ways. You’ll laugh so much and be completely entertained. It’s a mixture of the movie Barbie meets Alien Nation . See more Dallas H Jul 27 Earth Girls Are Easy is an extremely cheesy '80s musical about alien invaders. And it's a perfect fit for a double feature with Voyage of the Rock Aliens (1984). And I lost it with referring to Wesson Vegetable Oil as an "essential oil" to be used for romantic pleasure. See more Erik B 01/11/2025 A fever dream of a musical; this movie stars a ton of folks who would go on to huge things...but I wonder if they prefer to leave this one off their resumes. I find it enjoyable if a little grating, and I'm totally smitten with Geena Davis...but this is definitely not a film for everyone. See more Read all reviews
