Meet Dave
A crew of miniature aliens operate a spaceship that has a human form. While trying to save their planet, the aliens encounter a new problem, as their ship becomes smitten with an Earth woman.
Critics Sentiment
Dave experiences human emotions at the theme park with Josh and Gina
Number 2 makes Dave break out and attack the police officers
The film drops significantly when Number 2 takes control and Dave becomes violent, falling from heartwarming family moments to poorly executed action sequences.
Meet Dave starts with an intriguing premise that generates modest entertainment through its cultural clash humor, particularly when aliens learn human emotions. However, the film falters badly in its final act with generic villain plots and forced action sequences. While some reviewers found genuine heart in the family relationships and Eddie Murphy's physical comedy, most agreed the execution was rushed and the humor often fell flat.
