Made by sci-fi fans, for sci-fi fans

This underrated '99 comedy is a loving tribute to all the good, the bad, and the hilariously ridiculous that goes along with being a part of the sci-fi fan culture. Enjoyable for non-sci-fi fans, too, particularly those who just enjoy a family-friendly, heartfelt, funny film, filled with silly gags and great comedic turns by Tim Allen (back when we still liked him), Sigourney Weaver, Tony Shaloub, the always-awesome Alan Rickman, and the scene-stealing Enrico Colantoni. Also keep your eyes out for the before-they-were-stars performances of Justin Long and Rainn Wilson.
