Outer Space just got better and better for this Universe! A grade A+

When it comes to watching sci-fi movies, you be expecting a lot of stuff that has to do with outer space such as aliens or other things that are very adventurous, but in Planet 51, we get to see a movie that takes a new turn the other way around between humans and aliens.

In the movie, an astronaut in his mid 30s named Charles T. Baker, otherwise known for shortly as Chuck (voiced by the great and awesome Dwayne Johnson who is still famously known to people as The Rock to some others) lands a new planet that is out of this world! Only to find out that aliens (that's right I said aliens) are living in a sweet old-fashion 1950s world. So with the help of his new friend, 16 year old Lem (played by Justin long), Chuck must find a way to get out of this new world and back to his old home at Earth at once before it's too late.

The film delivers a LOT of hilarious jokes you'll find in Chuck and Lem's journey; and others that would be recommended for older adults and teens rather than children. The cast was very well pick, even for Jessica Biel who plays Neera, Lem's love interest. Seann William Scott as Skiff, Lem's dorky friend and let's not forget about Gary Oldman as General Grawl and John Cleese as Professior Kipple.

Though the movie is about 1 hour long and 31 minutes (maybe a little bit shorter than Open Season) you're gonna want to wish that the flick was more longer than that and never stop watching it!
