This Merry Planet Trailers

Three cynical and emotionally detached aliens arrive on earth on New Year's eve with the mission of exploring and studying human behaviour but inevitably get pulled into a hillarious, nonsensical plot which makes them realize just how wonderful earth life can be with all its quirks, drama and humour.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

'This Jolly Planet' is an old Soviet comedy and a good one, too. The plot centres around a group of aliens that decide to explore a new planet with sapient life forms and suddenly get right in the middle of the New Year celebrations in some Soviet town. On this moment science fiction ends and what follows is an enjoyable musical with beautiful songs, many of which remain quite famous up to this day (unlike the movie itself, which somehow is almost forgotten). If you grow tired of 'The Irony of Fate' or 'The Sorcerers' give this flick a try.
