Standard formula with only plus the ninja scene, Sep 25 2010
This is one of standard formula movies. The family is cute and overtly functional. However, under the covers, kids have problems and parents are dumber than dirt. They vacation in a low-tech environment because its technology that caused this family to be dysfunctional. Of course the parents do not know what technology is so that is why they been a problem on technology. Against know about it all too well so that is why they been the problem on technology. Nothing with keynote this change in the situation. Therefore, we throw in malicious aliens, goofy zombies, "haven't got a clue" authorities, and ET wannabe, and the kitchen sink. Maybe the kids will learn something from this. Maybe the parents will still go home without a clue. Maybe the authorities go off into the sunset. Maybe we spent X. minutes of our lives. I am not saying that people who do not appreciate kid's slapstick would not appreciate this movie but they are the only ones that could. Some of the actors are popular and evidently so is Ashley Tisdale. For those with a tendency to enjoy this kind of movie I suggest you avoid this movie and watch "The Goonies" (1985). For technophiles, I only saw the Blu-ray and cannot compare it. However, the visuals and sound is all that is promised. The Goonies

Awesome Family Fun!!!, Sep 28 2009
By Pumpkin Man - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: ALIENS IN THE ATTIC (DVD)
I absolutely loved this movie! I loved the comedy, the storyline, the action, the effects, everything! This may be my 4th favorite movie of 2009 behind Friday the 13th, Land of the Lost, and Halloween II! I've seen a lot of negative reviews toward this movie, but some people take things a little too seriously. This movie is for the kid in all of us. While on summer vacation, the Pearson family go to three-story holiday house in the middle of nowhere. The kids; Hannah, Tom, and Bethany don't wanna go, but they are forced to. They meet more family members like Jake, Art, and Lee. When Bethany's boyfriend forces Tom to the roof, they see the aliens who want to take over the world. Throughout the day, the kids try to stop them, without their parents finding out. One alien, Sparks is not a threat to the humans and decides to become friends with Hannah. Sparks is a cute little alien, unlike Skip, Tazer, and Razor. Will the Pearson children stop the evil aliens from taking over the world? I highly recommend ALIENS IN THE ATTIC!!!
