On the debit side, the central 'characters' are two of the biggest drips that ever strode the screen. Not only intellectually-challenged, they are also common-sense challenged and let themselves get into all kinds of absurd situations, especially as victims of aliens who are searching for a gismo that they might have. They are descendants of Bill and Ted of ten years ago having excellent adventures. But American Pie and Road Trip (in both of which one of the stars Seann William Scott has appeared) have happened in the meantime, so the IQ level has plunged.

On the credit side, there must be something... Some of the situations are so silly that they evoke some laughter so that it is a rung or two above a dead loss.
