Description

Hide your cats because the mensch from Melmac is back and in the custody of the US Government. And hes got Colonel Milfoil (Martin Sheen) trying to get him declared a threat to national security. Luckily his considerable charms even work on US Air Force officers Major Hill and Captain Mulligan, who aid him in a hilarious journey to thwart the evil schemes of renegade scientists and military rules. "That irascible, wisecracking alien life form known as ALF is back from the land of permanent hiatus, in an ABC movie that, while preserving the flavor of the long-running NBC series, is even funnier" Daily Variety

Project: Alf.......2007-05-12

It was great to see a movie that I watch once a long time ago.

I love it, but for completionists only.......2007-01-31

Plot, such as it is: Alf is being held in some kind of "alien detention center," led, evidentally, by the totally unnecessary Martin Sheen. And a couple of underlings kidnap Alf to freedom. That's it. One wishes desperately for Willie and the rest of the Tanners, but we're told, "they're in a gov't protection/relocation thing in Iceland, because they like the school system there." There is a good scene where Alf winds up in some "G" rated..."dance-pole" bar, and asks the waiteress for some sort of (running joke) "cat" dish. That's it. Still, when shows with bald twits hosting "Deal Or No Deal" or Paula "Oh I'm so giggly" Abdul's version of Star Search are the norm - ANYTHING "Alf" is a blessed relief. "Alf" was the only justification for even owning a television in the eighties, so go on, DO complete your collection like I did.

still going strong after all these years.......2007-01-10

buy this you and your kids will laugh for hours

ALF at his best!.......2005-09-08

No, it is not the ALF show...with the Tanners, etc., but that is a god thing. The show was not a hit because of the Tanners. It was a hit because of ALF, and this movie is all about ALF. The older I get and the more I know, the more I see the wit behind ALF's one liners, and the funnier ALF becomes. And my 2 year old loves him! An excellent movie! A must for all fans of ALF.

"Let's not follow in Bill Cosby's footsteps" .......2005-06-21

Okay, the movie wasn't that great. I admit that. I admit that there's no Tanner family, no cats and no reason that die-hard fans of ALF wouldn't like this movie. ALF was on when I was 4 or 5. I barely remember anything from ALF until I bought the first season on DVD. And I was a die-hard ALF fan. I even had a talking ALF doll. I even dressed like ALF one Halloween when I was about the right size to BE ALF.
ALF is in trouble. No surprise there, since he was always in trouble in the show. But now, he's in deep trouble as we see the lovable alien is at an Airforce Base. One general wants to kill ALF for what he did to his mother. It's not the best movie, but at least it tried to be funny.
