This is one film im dying to see. From the guys who starred in the fantastic Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz (Simon Pegg and Nick Frost) and also starred in early 00s tv series Spaced. Im a big fan and have been waiting for this film check out trailer if you havent already im sure it will be another big hit for them, cornetto anybody?

The previews for "Paul" are hilarious!

But haven't we seen 'Paul' before?  I mean .. Paul's like a combination of:

-

 E.T.

& 

-

Meathead 

in my opinion.  ha

Should make for a fun flick!

Seen this last night. Definitely some funny parts, but still not sure I can reccommend. Neat references throughout the movie to pay homage to many sci-fi classics...Star Wars and ET were the obvious ones. Not helpful, I know....just not sure what to say about this one.....

Maybe it was Seth Rogen's voice, ha,ha. It looked funny to me, until I heard Seth Rogen was the voice of Paul.

Good point Pitts. I actually like Seth Rogen, but now that you mention it....the voice just doesn't seem to fit the character....

Uh Ronnie.. what made you suddenly think to post this?

All of 'Paul's Language On the Forum' postings? [Big Grin]

I must admit that the previews made me laugh .. and then I even watched "Meatballs 2" that night. This will definitely be a Netflix for me.

'Paul' was so-so. Less of a movie than an excuse for more 'buddy' humour from Pegg and co. It had its moments.
