For all comedy lovers, 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros will present Meet Dave, a comedy co-written by Bill Corbett and Rob Greenberg this summer. The movie tells the story about alien humanoids trying to save their planet.

A huge fireball hits the New York Central Park. One of the survivors appears to be Dave Ming Chang, a strange man who, ahem, actually turns out to be a spacecraft. The crew of which consists of 100 alien humanoids, which are about one-quarter inch tall. The desperate aliens try to find a way to save their planet. The plan becomes more complicated when their capitan falls in love with an Earth woman.

Already the plot seems a little bizarre, to say the least, and there appear to be different opinions about the latest Eddie Murphy film. FirstShowing.net is somewhat critical, for example.

First we met Norbit, now we meet Dave. Meet Dave is the next terrible comedy from Eddie Murphy and his director Brian Robbins. This time he’s an alien, I think, being controlled by a whole of bite-size people including Eddie Murphy and Gabrielle Union… Oh goodness, what have we come to? The only good thing about this is Elizabeth Banks, but even she won’t save what is going to completely flop at the box office this summer. There really is nothing good coming out of this. I don’t know why they keep making movies like this and I don’t know why people keep seeing them. Oh well…

Others, however, are willing to give it the benefit of the doubt. Nolanaor is one of thecomments.

Since I saw Meet Dave on one of earl’s post and I had never heard of it, I decided to find the trailer. The movie looks funny but maybe a little wierd, but it does star Eddie, so I might give it a chance. Watch it.
