Have You Seen Planet 51?

I have always like space movies where there are aliens and people traveling to other planets.

Planet 51 is a great cartoon movie that has a astronaut from Earth landing on a distant planet. Here is how the movie goes:

Make new friends at Planet 51

When astronaut Captain Charles “Chuck” Baker lands on Planet 51, he quickly realizes that he is not alone. The world is inhabited by green aliens — green aliens who seem to be stuck in a 1950s American culture. There is no explanation as to how this remarkable resemblance to American culture came about, or as to how the aliens speak English, but no matter, an alien named Lem agrees to help Chuck (who is actually the alien on this planet) out and get him back to his ship.

This task proves harder than expected, though, when alien General Grawl and Professor Kipple get involved. Convinced the “humaniac” is out to take over the Planet 51 inhabitants’ brains, the General and his army set out to capture Chuck. At great peril to himself, Lem continues to try and help Chuck. With the help of a few of Lem’s friends and Chuck’s trusty pal Rover, they just might succeed, and if Chuck can put aside his grand vision of himself, he just might be able to teach the inhabitants of Planet 51 a thing or two about the what lies beyond.

I won’t tell you what the ending is but I really did enjoy this movie. There were a few things that was said that I had to ask Dada the meaning. Dada was able to explain what life was like in the 1950s in America.

This is a fun movie for kid’s of all ages.

There is a Planet 51 game for all the modern game consoles such as Sony Play Station 3 and PSP, Nintendo DS and Wii and Microsoft Xbox 360.

There is a great Internet site where you can play the game online. The address is: Planet 51 Online
