Paul (2011)
Directed by Greg Mottola this film is written by and stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as well as including the voice talent of Seth Rogen. Two British sci-fi fans on a road trip through America's UFO hot spots run into an escaped alien.
This film contains plenty of cinematic references as you would expect from previous works Pegg has been involved in writing. Unfortunately the film does fall a little flat, it is not really funny enough and sticks a bit too closely to formulas commonly used in cinema. While this is not a bad film it certainly does not hit the heights of Pegg's collaborations with Edgar Wright which is a shame.
3/5
