Educational Value

May spark interest in science. Reference to and brief explanation of the Drake Equation, which is used to estimate likelihood of finding life in the galaxy.

Positive Messages

Values promoted: healthy and respectful disagreement and teamwork -- each individual has a part to play in a successful task. It's important to overlook our differences and find ways to connect.

Positive Role Models

Young hero, the victim of a bully, gains self-confidence, courage, and pride in his own abilities. His cousin and partner, a know-it-all girl, learns to be less judgmental and rigid. Adults are responsible, caring. Some ethnic diversity.

Violence & Scariness

Mild action and suspense. Aliens, with one exception, are more humorous than scary. The one exception: A boy transforms into an alien villain with hideous teeth and threatening demeanor. Ray-gun fire, lightning storm. Characters are shaken, threatened, momentarily frozen, held captive, and chased. A bully smooshes a large bug onto his victim's head and face. Visuals of creepy crawlies: a tarantula, a scorpion.

Parents need to know.

Parents need to know that Aliens Ate My Homework is a live-action adaptation of the first book in Bruce Coville 's successful series, Rod Allbright and the Galactic Patrol . In this origin story, Rod Allbright (Jayden Greig), a 12-year-old boy, is visited by aliens who are out to save Earth. The miniature beings, more humorous than scary, crash-land in a miniature spaceship in Rod's bedroom. Expect frequent mild action: ray guns, lightning, characters (including small children) frozen in place as hostages and held captive. ( Spoiler alert : The villain is vanquished when he's pelted with muck.) Another sixth-grader bullies the hero and his friend, mashing a large bug into his victim's hair and face. Words like "booger" and "fart" are used to get laughs. Some sad moments relate to Rod's father disappearing three years earlier in a turbulent storm. But overall it should be OK for kids who are comfortable with real vs. pretend violence. To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weekly Family Movie Night emails .

Absolute garbage..

What's the story.

Rod Allbright's dad, dedicated to making science fun for his family, disappears when a strange storm carries him away in ALIENS ATE MY HOMEWORK. But before he is whooshed away, he promises Rod that he'll return. Three years later, Rod (Jayden Greig), now a sixth-grader, still misses his dad terribly but never stops believing that he'll come back. Bullied at school by the ruthless Billy (Ty Consiglio), Rod and his best friend, Mickey (Sean Quan), are simply outmatched. But things are going to change for Rod Allbright. To his utter amazement, a miniature spaceship crash-lands in his bedroom. Four very small (action figure-sized) alien members of "The Galactic Patrol" -- three creatures and a talking plant (voiced by William Shatner ) -- are in desperate need of his help. Their mission is to find B'kr, a ferocious villain guilty of the galaxy's greatest crime: cruelty. Certain B'kr is masquerading as a human, they must stop him before he can execute his plan to destroy the earth. It's all overwhelming at first. Not only does he have to keep the Galaxy Patrol's arrival secret and help them repair their damaged spacecraft, but his annoying cousin Elspeth (Lauren McNamara) has also arrived to stay with his family. And, most bizarre of all, the evil B'kr may be posing as someone Rod knows!

Is It Any Good?

Kids will find some laughs and some characters to like here, but the primitive special effects and general amateurish production make this movie hard to recommend. What's good about the film -- an inventive premise and the emphasis on science -- came from the book. It's clear that having William Shatner on board was a casting coup for the filmmakers, but his performance is more annoying than engaging. A crucial plot element, the disappearance of Rod Allbright's dad, isn't resolved, and the movie's ending indicates that there will be further adventures. On a positive note, Aliens Ate My Homework may inspire some kids to read the popular Coville book series, and that's always a good thing.

Talk to Your Kids About ...

Families can talk about the violence in Aliens Ate My Homework. Even though it's a live-action movie, the action is more cartoon-like than real. What is the impact of violence on kids? Does cartoon violence lessen that impact? Why or why not?

How did the arrival of the Galactic Patrol help Rod work out his own issues? With Billy? With Elspeth? In what ways did Rod change over the course of his adventure?

The Drake Equation -- estimating the possibility of other lifeforms in the cosmos -- really exists. Have you ever thought about that possibility? Create your own ideal planet or star. What would the civilization and its inhabitants look like? What kind of world would it be?

Critical Reception [ ]

Renee Longstreet from Common Sense Media gave the film a two-star rating, stating: "Kids will find some laughs and some characters to like here, but the primitive special effects and general amateurish production make this movie hard to recommend."

Brendan Campbell from Inside Impulse wrote: "Aliens At My Homework is a fairly fast-moving movie at 90-minutes, and fans who read the book will likely be happy to see the characters they’ve read about come to life."

Video Librarian gave it three stars, saying: "Unapologetically cheesy as effects-heavy sci-fi films go, Aliens Ate My Homework makes up for a lot of hokey ray-guns, miniature spaceships, and a talking shrub (or something) with clever, ironic humor that appeals to the middle-schooler in us all."

Saving the world isn’t easy. It’s even harder when you’re only nine. Kelly Donovan used to be a nobody. Well, a smart nobody. Skipping ahead a year in school made her the smallest kid in fifth grade and a target for bullies in search of an easy mark. She tried to follow her father’s advice and ignore them, but it didn’t do any good. Escaping into her favorite comic books at least helped her through the day. Who needs friends anyway? Sometimes, dreams find a way to come true, even if nobody asked them to.

Another kid, who looks almost like a grown man, introduces himself with a long Polynesian name, but says everyone calls him "Big," and he seems to like the nickname! As they get to know each other, Paul, Big, and Small discover they have a lot in common as outsiders in their high school.

And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis and telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon.

Being a superhero should be fun. After all, a world of super powers is a world where Amazonian juggernauts made of candy battle guys in spandex that drive talking cars. Irene loves that weirdness, loves the game of fighting, and loves being a four-foot-tall woman who still gets to drop big heavy objects on villains' heads. In 1980, that fun is in danger. A mad scientist who murders people for his research has everyone afraid. Two of the friendliest super-powered rivals around stop playing and go for the kill.

Zero is just one of 20,000 people aboard a spaceship bound for a new planet set to be colonized.

Everyone that is, except for Zero, whose pod has malfunctioned, waking him up a hundred years early. His initial excitement in roaming the ship alone quickly turns to a heart-stopping interstellar adventure when a family of space pirates show up, trying to hijack the ship and take the colonizers hostage.

Living and slaving in Fill City One, you get used to the smell. We call it the Everpresent Stink. But every once in a while, on a spring day with a breeze, it clears away enough to remind us that there is something more out there. Most Fillers' wildest dreams would be just to get past the walls and live in the mainland. But my dream? It’s a little bigger. I’m going to Mars.

He lives in the biggest house on the block, maybe in the whole city, which basically makes it a castle. His mom calls where they live an apartment building. But a building with fifty doors just in the hallways is definitely a castle.

Publisher's summary

Kelly Donovan wants to save the Earth from aliens, but her plan has a serious snag - she needs to do it before bedtime.

It’s been a few weeks since the Nolmek scattered giant crystals around the world that unintentionally gave some people superpowers. They also nearly eliminated war and shared technology to solve famine, drought, and pollution, so pretty much everyone loves them.

Alas, the aliens didn’t visit Earth purely out of kindness. They needed a primitive species to enslave.

Kelly discovers they’re speeding up their plans, already abducting people from the super-prison right out from under the cops’ noses - the same prison her mad scientist father is stuck in. She’s desperate to protect him, but unfortunately, no one is willing to believe the Nolmek could be bad guys. Worse, they know she’s on to them.

If she can’t find proof of the aliens’ plan, stop the invasion, and be in bed before nine, she faces worse than the enslavement of humanity - she’ll be grounded.

It was a world of trouble I wasn't prepared for, which is why I kept this diary (or "chronicle" as my dad would call it) - to warn other kids about the dangers of becoming a ninja.

Movies like this make me happy because it makes me think I’ll have a shot in getting my film made.

Travis Lytle

Review by Travis Lytle ★★★

With that same made-for-TV flatness that marks 75% of all Disney Channel Original Movies, "Aliens At My Homework," a non-DCOM, middle-school-audience-targeted piece of science fiction, is not without its low-rent charms. Following two cousins attempting to save Earth from a dangerous extraterrestrial masquerading as a tween bully, the film follows the two on a hero quest with interplanetary stakes. The cast is committed, the script is littered with dad jokes, and the adventure is spry if recognizable. Flaws and flimsness abound, but the film is fun enough to gloss over its weaknesses.

Review by Yossi ½ 3

Possibly the most incompetent movie I've seen since home alone 4. I don't feel like wasting my time complaining because I also had many good laughs. It's on Netflix, so check it out!

May I just say that William Shatner as "Phil", an anthropomorphic venus fly trap who's only purpose is to pilot the ship and tell plant puns, is the best character of cinema history.

All I can say is, you thought Cloverfield paradox was bad?

DeathByCinema

Review by DeathByCinema ½

Imagine taking the superficial elements of Sharkboy and Lavagirl, Small Soldiers, and Power Rangers, and then mixing them together in a lukewarm soup cauldron. Mix in a dash of "Aliens in the Attic" for good measure, and you've got yourself Aliens Ate My Homework.

I can't imagine a bigger waste of time than this movie. I know, it's so harsh when that's said about something that's been worked on. The makeup effects are still great, and the aliens themselves act their hearts out, but 97% of the film relies on cliches, tropes, archetypes, and plot points that went out of style more than 30 years ago.

So in a sense, any wisping moments of good will that the film would've…

TFW you realize Guardians of the Galaxy is a ripoff of one of your favorite books from childhood.

Also, I know kids' books aren't Norse epics or anything, but I swear a lot more happened than made it into the movie.

Review by leef ½ 1

This movie successfully made me hate puns, aliens, star wars, star trek, science, volcanos, laughter, joy, and happiness. Some people don't deserve rights and by some people I mean Sean McNamara

DrPlatypus

Review by DrPlatypus ★★ 3

I gotta say I appreciated the hell outta some of the practical effects in this. For a kid's movie, it's fine. Nothing too godawful or bad. But we're really past that point of just "background movies" for children, I think. We need to try a bit more to not pander to them, I think, and yeah...this is a 90s movie that was made in 2018, so it really just does not host the advantage of nostalgia.

I gotta say though, William Shatner as an alien plant constantly making puns is a gold mine for comedy. And seeing as he was a practical effects heavy puppet, hell, I could see him do Little Shop of Horrors, haha.

Aliens ate my homework: the adventures of ubergirl, book 2 audible audiobook – unabridged.

Kelly Donovan wants to save the Earth from aliens, but her plan has a serious snag - she needs to do it before bedtime.

It’s been a few weeks since the Nolmek scattered giant crystals around the world that unintentionally gave some people superpowers. They also nearly eliminated war and shared technology to solve famine, drought, and pollution, so pretty much everyone loves them.

Alas, the aliens didn’t visit Earth purely out of kindness. They needed a primitive species to enslave.

Kelly discovers they’re speeding up their plans, already abducting people from the super-prison right out from under the cops’ noses - the same prison her mad scientist father is stuck in. She’s desperate to protect him, but unfortunately, no one is willing to believe the Nolmek could be bad guys. Worse, they know she’s on to them.

If she can’t find proof of the aliens’ plan, stop the invasion, and be in bed before nine, she faces worse than the enslavement of humanity - she’ll be grounded.
