Earth Girls Are Easy

Dir: Julian Temple
Star: Jeff Goldblum, Geena Davis, Damon Wayans, Julie Brown

[4] The best way to describe this indescribable film is as a musical version of Revenge of the Teenage Vixens From Outer Space with the sexes swapped. That was, unsurprisingly, several orders of magnitude worse than this, which isn't bad at all. Goldblum is the lead alien, his (then-)wife Davis is the Valley Girl who finds ET's in her pool, and introduces them to life in California. Some very silly moments and a good soundtrack outweigh the odd dullish chunk - you have to keep on your toes to spot all the references and background jokes (not to mention a very young Jim Carrey!).

7/10
