This smash-hit science-fiction comedy, based on a short-lived 1980s comic strip, has secret agent Tommy Lee Jones and new recruit Will Smith as part of a top-secret agency responsible for regulating all extraterrestrial activity on Earth.
While investigating an alien sighting, the pair become involved in the search for a missing galaxy to appease an interstellar force and avert the Earth’s destruction.
Great special effects, inventive alien designs and Smith and Jones’s hip, hilarious double act make director Barry Sonnenfeld’s Lethal Weapon-style buddy picture a fast-paced pleasure.
