Audience Member Worth watching. Aliens on the run in their home planet come to Earth and create a hostage situation in a small town house. The hostages and some police help them, others do not. Intergalactic common ground found in the form of Oreo cookies. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Worth watching.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Extraterrestrial visitors fleeing their homeland become stranded on Earth on a rural farmhouse. Probably doesn't get made without the E.T. influence. One alien seems to enjoy Oreos, they really are just like us. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Further proof that Ione Skye is a boring actress. Coupled with the fact that I hate sci-fi, this one's a film to forget. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member The cheesiest of the cheese, Stranded is actually a well-made sci-fi with one of my all-time best-looking actresses Ione Skye, who 20 years later still looks just as good. Skye and veteran actress Maureen O'Sullivan play host to "stranded" aliens trying to escape from an intergalactic bounty hunter. The aliens themselves look alright, but you can obviously tell that they are just humans in pale make-up and retro clothing. But it's awesome to see RHCP bassist Flea playing a mischevious alien, more than likely the influence for his lengthy and non-verbal stint on the Wild Thornberrys. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member thanks for adding this one, Flixster! love this one... Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
