The movie begins with an extraterrestrial humanoid species, the Glegoliths, wandering through space in search of a new world. Encountering an unknown planet (which turns out to be Earth), the Glegolith leader (Cyrillus) sends two "manned" probes to the surface to determine if it is suitable for colonisation. The scouts in the probes think they have arrived at a great city, but in fact they have arrived at a new amusement park that is not yet open to the public. They proceed to explore four amusement rides.

Awesome Movie
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
"Alien Advanture" is a 35-minute movie from almost 20 years ago which was made by Belgian animator Ben Stassen. The major problem here is the complete lack of a plot in here. I guess the animation is fine for the most part and this may even be interesting when watched in 3D on a big screen, but I still believe there is almost nothing memorable to it overall. I have seen better stuff from Stassen, but I guess we can forgive him for this mediocrity here because he must have been really young when he shot this one and if it's needed to accelerate his improvement, then it is fine I guess. Still overall, I cannot recommend the watch here. Thumbs down.
Alien Adventure is a film that consists entirely of 3D effects. There isn't any plot. The entire basis of this film is to show special effects in 3D. I saw this DVD on a regular television screen losing the 3D effects. The special effects were still nice but since I couldn't see it in 3D and that was the main purpose of the movie, there was no real point of watching it. I don't understand why they didn't combine some plot, some point to the movie, with the 3D viewing. If you can't see this in 3D, don't bother to watch it. It's a waste of time. If you are able to see it in 3D, expect to see 3D and some great special effects but nothing more.
In the finest tradition of sci-fi 3-D movies, the plot is terrible.The 3-D effects, however, are really very good. I just bought a 3-D viewing system on line and was impressed at how well the home system worked. Of course, one loses the sheer mass of the IMAX screen, but it is pretty cool to see quality 3-D popping out of your home screen (and we just have a standard 19" color TV).The aliens look great and the roller coaster rides are entertaining, though it would have been nice for the aliens to encounter something else at the amusement park (like a 3-D shooting gallery, for example).
We made one big mistake when seeing this movie. We had just eaten! Being virgin Imax viewers in the big city we popped along to see what was on for the afternoon. Hey! There's one starting in 10 minutes, and wow its 3D!! Based on your normal movie the production quality and the graphics were excellent especially the space docking scenes. The aliens were well composed and their personalities come through even with the dialect barrier. The first 3D experience is via a simulator in a theme park. This one takes us to the arctic circle for a sleigh ride. We get tobogganed all over the place. One thing I noticed in all the 'rides' was that there was quite often another car/item directly in front of the one you are supposedly sitting in. Can someone help here, is this to enhance the sensations or to temper them a bit. It meant you tended to focus on the middle of the screen. Anyway the Arctic one was very good, the bedroom one was very well done as well, I think I stopped appreciating them after that as the food and the sensations worked their own magic on my constitution.It was probably about 10 minutes too long. I remember thinking the aquatic scenes were not nearly as good as the earlier ones. Even so, I think everyone should have at least one session in a 3D movie and although I have nothing to compare it with, (as yet) I will recommend this one.
