Earth Girls Are Easy
Tags: cult, romantic

Plot synopsis:
Three furry aliens—the blue Mac, the yellow Zeebo, and the red Wiploc–are traveling in a space ship. It's been a long time since they've had female companionship, and they receive a broadcast showing human females. They are titillated by these "hairless", shapely creatures, and when they discover that the broadcast came from Earth, they set off and land in Southern California.
Valley Girl Valerie Gail is a manicurist at the "Curl Up & Dye" hair salon. When she feels her cold fiancé Dr. Ted Gallagher is slipping away, she decides to seduce him by dressing up in a white corset, suspenders, underwear, stockings and pink high heels. Instead, she catches him cheating on her with his nurse. She kicks him out and refuses to see him again. The next day, she is sunbathing when the aliens' spaceship crash lands in her pool. She befriends them and calls her friend Woody to come and drain the pool so the aliens can work on their ship and get it flying again. Meanwhile, she brings them into her home; and, though there is a language barrier at first, the aliens prove to be quick learners and absorb American pop culture and language by watching television.
Wanting them to blend into their surroundings, Valerie takes them to her friend Candy Pink at the salon. After shaving off the aliens' fur, they turn out to be human looking and attractive. They all go out; and party at Los Angeles nightclubs where their looks, athleticism, and incredibly long tongues soon make them the envy of every female in the place. Valerie and Mac begin to fall for each other and go back to Valerie's place. There, they find out that they are anatomically compatible and make love.
The next day the pool is drained, and Zeebo and Wiploc are working on their ship when Woody stops by and offers to take them to the beach. They agree; and, after accidentally holding up a convenience store, Zeebo and Wiploc are soon driving down the L.A. Freeway the wrong way, in reverse, with the police in pursuit. Mac finds out his crew mates are in trouble and goes to help and gets arrested along with Woody in a case of mistaken identity. Valerie smashes the police vehicle to get arrested, too, so she can go with Mac.
The police pursuit ends in a crash, and Zeebo and Wiploc are taken to the emergency room. There, they are examined by Ted, who discovers they have two hearts. While he is envisioning achieving fame and fortune from his discovery, Valerie and Mac elude the police and enter the E.R. disguised as a doctor and a nurse; they manage to convince Ted he is delusional. They then escape back to Valerie's place where work continues on the space ship. Meanwhile, Valerie and Ted reconcile and plan to go to Las Vegas to get married right away.
Mac is heartbroken and prepares the ship for take-off. Valerie comes out to say good-bye, followed by Ted, who discovers the ship. While she is struggling to keep him from calling the authorities, Valerie comes to the realization that it's really Mac she loves. She gets in the ship, and they take off.

Review: Former real life Hollywood couple Jeff Goldblum & Geena Davis made 3 films together, two of them comedies, one of them serious.
Then after boldly going where no Hollywood couple had ever gone before in said remake of "The Fly", they returned to light hearted comedy with our film here "Earth Girls Are Easy".I've often theorized that the reason celebrity couples do films together is because it gives them a chance to spend time together and work together (seeing as how the hectic Hollywood schedule tends to keep people apart for long periods of time) and because studios can cash in on the respective fan bases of both stars.
Well, for what it's worth this is a hell of a lot more fun to watch than most celebrity couple films.Anyway, in this their third and final film together, Geena plays a beautiful but romantically unhappy manicurist Valley Girl who's doctor boyfriend Ted is cheating on her and Jeff plays the blue furred ringleader of three furry aliens, the other two being yellow furred Damon Wayans and pre-movie stardom red furred Jim Carrey (with his hair dyed blond!).
Furry aliens Jeff, Jim and Damon crash land in Geena's pool the day after Geena discovers how unfaithful Ted's been and the sight of them understandably throws her for a loop.
With their ship down for repairs the boys will have to stay with Geena and, doing her part for interplanetary relations, takes them to her ditzy manicurist cohort Candy (Julie Brown, who also helped write the film) to give the guys make overs so they can pass for Earthlings.
Geena eventually falls in love with Captain Jeff.In an unrelated subplot that never quite went anywhere, Julie Brown's character fell for Jim Carrey's alien.
Watching this back when it was made, who would have guessed that Jim Carrey would eventually go on to become one of Hollywood's biggest comedic stars and possess a career that would overshadow stars Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis?May not be brilliant comedy but like so many other comedies of the 80s this is still a reasonably funny, good natured romp with the cast making the most of it.
Geena's easy to like and Jeff's a good straight man to the wild antics of Jim and Damon, who both appear to be having a good time as the nuttier aliens.
I don't know why people keep saying bad things about Jeff's performance here, as his quirky style makes him an ideal alien stranger in a strange land and manages some of the film's best bits, like when he uses his "love touch" to get two cops stuck on each other.
There's also a funny scene where Jeff offers to make love to Geena to make her feel better about herself and get her mind off her cheating boyfriend and she tries to explain that them making love might not work on account of the fact that he's not of the Earth so not everything may work the same way and the whole time he's undressing off camera and then she gets a look at him and his "equipment" and just sort of trails off.
Of course, she has to make sure he doesn't get the impression that "Earth Girls Are Easy".Bit of a shame that Jeff & Geena's marriage didn't work out.There are also some funny musical bits."Mac is Mr. Right?" - Jeff Goldblum as Mac. Aliens Crash Land In Woman's Swimming Pool, Help Her With Failing Relationship.
Clueless Valerie (Geena Davis) of the Valley discovers that her idiot fiancee, Ted (Charles Rocket), is cheating on her about the same time that some aliens crash land in her swimming pool.
It is an amusing little romantic comedy that seems to have taken some cues from Susan Sneideman's 'Making Mr. Right' which you might also enjoy if you like this movie, although that is not quite as funky in the B-52s sense of the word.
Everyone loves a good (or bad) alien movie, and "Earth Girls Are Easy" doesn't disappoint.
Valerie (Geena Davis) is an every-woman in southern California whose life is turned upside down when three aliens, Mac (Jeff Goldblum), Wiploc (Jim Carrey) and Zeebo (Damon Wayans), land in her swimming pool.
With talents like Gina Davis, Geoff Goldblum, the young Jim Carrey and the multi-talented Julie Brown amongst others how could it fail?
Memorable moments include the aliens' learning isolated English phrases from commercials and old movies - "limp and hard to manage" has become a family in-joke; the like,-totally-cool-to-whatever-outrageous-happens surfer Woody (Michael McKean); the makeover; and Julie Brown's song, now a classic on Dr Demento, "Because I'm Blonde".For anyone who complains the special effects are cheesy - they're _meant_ to be!
This is in part a spoof of the 1950's aliens-come-to-earth B movies, so watch closely when the space ship arrives, hovers over the trees, and does its forced landing in Davis' pool: it is a triumph of reproducing the authentic 1950's effect, not a poor attempt at 80's FX tech!
It's light hearted, funny, has some interesting musical interludes and outrageous costumes and is one of Jim carrey's earlier films.
Before three aliens accidentally land into Valerie (Geena Davis)'s pool, she is a manicurist in The Valley, California, and is about to marry a doctor, Ted (Charles Rocket), who has always been unfaithful to her.
Now the arrival of the three extra-terrestrials will change Valerie's life forever.As a sci-fi comedy, some occasional singing scenes make this film also fit the category of musical.
Although this is not exactly a profound story, it is light-hearted, colorful, energetic and successfully made for the purpose of entertainment.The whole film is a hilarious party, if you're in the mood to relax, to lay back and to kick off your shoes without wanting to explore some serious issue, then you'll have a grand time watching this.
The scene Valerie "destroys" about everything in her house after she sees her fiance with another woman was skillfully filmed and acted in a very funny and original way, while Valerie sings "I've lost my faith in you".As Valerie, Geena Davis beautifully portrayed this cheerful, optimistic, lively and strong woman.
Jeff Goldblum played Mac, a charming, maturer, steadier alien while his fellow travelers Wiploc and Zeebo (played by Jim Carrey and Damon Wayens respectively) are wackier and more fun-loving.
Three fuzzy, colorful aliens crash their little yellow ship into the pool of a young, somewhat vapid Geena Davis, who has recently discovered that her MD.
Their efforts to get laid are punctuated by the humorous pop songs of Julie Brown (of "I Like Them Big and Stupid" fame).One look at the cast, and you know this is going to be good comedy.
Jeff Goldblum was a big star when this film was made, but Jim Carey and Damon Wayans steal the show as hormone-stoked space guidos (they were both unknowns at the time).
One of the films that fits into the category of Just Fun.While you could never call this a musical there are definitely lots of great musical numbers in it.Geena Davis has a star turn as the vapid Valley Girl Valerie.
Just compare him in this movie to his role in "Airheads" and you will see just how wildly divergent he can be.Frankly, I didn't recognize him.This film is high camp and pulls it off well because it never takes itself seriously.Not being a big Jim Carrey fan when Valerie tells Wiploc that she will miss him least of all I always want to cheer.See this and have a good time..
Three furry multicolored aliens (Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey, Damon Wayans) land their spaceship in Geena Davis' pool.
It had the stars: Jeff Goldblum, a young Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans and the super hot Geena Davis!!!
This is a fun and kooky movie with a glimpse into the early days of some big names such as Jim Carey and Jeff Goldblum and to lesser extent Damon Waynes.
Geena is fresh and very likeable in the roll of Valerie, the earth girl that falls for the sometimes hairy alien Mac (Jeff) who has crash landed his ship into Valerie's swimming pool with his two alien crew (Carey and Waynes).
(Yet men like myself won't be offended by this fact; there are, of course, jerks of both sexes and they DESERVE to get theirs!)I have to wonder whether those who gave this movie anything less than a very good review actually saw the film or just hated the title.
These are comic performances that are among the very best on film and there are a wealth of vignettes you'll be referring to in conversations for years to come - so many I couldn't list them all here (the doughnut scene, for instance - the mention of which won't give anything away for those who haven't seen this - and the disco scene, which lampoons discos more than any other movie scene ever).Plus, this is heavyweight actor Geena Davis' best comic performance ever - and she's so endearing in this role.
Diving in to investigate, she encounters the ship's inhabitants: Blue-furred Jeff Goldblum (as Mac), Red-furred Jim Carrey (as Wiploc) and Yellow-furred Damon Wayans (as Zeebo).
Davis is attracted to Mr. Goldblum, but doesn't want aliens to think "Earth Girls Are Easy." Ms. Brown thinks Mr. Carrey's long tongue looks fun and Mr. Wayans' dancing stunt double gets a work-out.
The sound, cinematography (by Oliver Stapleton) and sets are totally awesome.********* Earth Girls Are Easy (9/9/88) Julien Temple ~ Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Julie Brown, Jim Carrey.
There's already tons of comments here, so I 'll keep it short: If you 've had a long day at work, if you have many things on your mind, etc., this is the perfect movie to clear your head, while having some mindless, silly yet pure and great fun !
a hilarious movie about three aliens(Jeff Goldblum,Damon Wayons,Jim Carrey)crash land their spaceship in the pool of sexy valley girl(Geena Davis)well valley woman would be more accurate.and get makeovers from geena's boss and friend(Julie Brown)however geena's fiancé(Charles Rocket)complicates matters.the three zany aliens are made up to look like humans.its pure 80's comedy high jinks.Jim carrey made this early in his career while he was on in living colour with Damon wayons.look for a cameo by Robby the robot during a dream sequence.also starring; Micheal mckean,and rick Hurst,Larry linville is in the end credits but i believe his scenes were cut out for some reason.
Julie brown sings a few funny songs.i recommend earth girls are easy to anyone who likes zany 80's comedies.8 out of 10..
I have watched this movie repeatedly and all I can say is "Far out man!" While I have never been a fan of Wayan or Carey I am a big fan of Davis, Brown, Goldblum and McKean.
This movie makes women seem like adult little girls who don't know what they want and allow people to use them.
I'm able to suspend the disbelief of the aliens having their hairy bodies shaved and appearing human--it's a quite creative idea--but I wasn't able to forgive other goofy plot holes, like the aliens landing on earth with no knowledge of the English vocabulary and imitating the lines they hear from movies and TV shows, and in no time they speak the language fluently.
Maybe he just wanted to re-team with Davis, after having worked together in "The Fly."  "Earth Girls Are Easy" definitely has its fun moments, but after a while that fun dissolves into sheer stupidity.
Zany comedy/musical about three aliens visiting Geena Davis in Los Angeles.
RELEASED IN 1988 and directed by Julien Temple, "Earth Girls are Easy" chronicles events when three aliens (Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans) befriend a woman in Los Angeles (Geena Davis) and go out on the town.
This here is a fairly original concept for a comedy, a film that featured some who would become comedic stars in the later years such as Wayans or Jim Carrey.
Mac (Jeff Goldblum), Wiploc (Jim Carrey) and Zeebo (Damon Wayans) are brightly-colored furry aliens desperate for female companionship.
A spaceship with three furry aliens lands in the swimming pool of a California girl (Geena Davis), so she makes friends with them.This is a pretty great 1980s film, with all the fun and cheese you could ever possibly want.
After the success of the 1986 hit "The Fly", Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis score another round in "Earth Girls Are Easy".
This time he plays an alien along with future "In Living Color" stars Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans(Keenan Ivory's brother).
I watched this film because the early Jim Carrey is silly and sweet to watch and you can't beat Geena Davis for outlandish costumes and situations she can slide into without self-consciousness.
Sure, it's about 3 aliens that are covered in fur and land in Gena Davis' pool, but the storyline is so corny it's funny.It's a typical '80s movie and Earth Girls Are Easy has the who shebang: typical clothing, music, and hot guys.
If anyone likes Jim Carrey I think you'll be enjoying this movie..
Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis make/made a really cute couple, and Julie Brown needs more small-but-important-best-friend parts.
OK, while "Earth Girls Are Easy" is a little fun and up lifting comedy, things just didn't work for me.
I can't stand movies like this!A valley girl in California is sunbathing in her yard when a spaceship crash-lands in her swimming pool.
It's funny, well-made, VERY colorful, has some great songs (especially "Cause I'm a Blond") and Genna Davis is a real good sport, considering she spends 90% of the movie wearing next to nothing.
However, Julie Brown is uproarious, Damon Wayans is cute (and really HOT!) and Jeff Goldblum actually makes his character believable and dignified.
The hot Julie Brown plays her valley girl friend and soon they shave the aliens to find out that they look like Wayans, Goldblum and Carrey.
The Fly is a movie with very dark themes, but Earth Girls are Easy is a very light-hearted comedy with a few songs in it.The ridiculous plot centers around three furry aliens who land in Davis's swimming pool, and subsequently get a makeover so that they look just like humans.
Literally colorful movie about funky aliens landing in an LA swimming pool, Geena Davis fans should take notice, she is running around in a very skimpy 2 piece bading suit, this is bubbly party movie to watch Friday night with a few friends and a lot of drinks with umbrellas.
"Earth Girls Are Easy" is a musical sci-fi comedy about valley-girl Valerie (played by Geena Davis) living in 1980's Los Angeles, and who is engaged to a cheating, boyfriend doctor named Ted (played by Charles Rocket).
The spaceship's crew (played by Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans), haven't had any "shore leave" in a long time.
EARTH GIRLS ARE EASY may be a strange title, but it is a great movie.
The WEST SIDE STORY of Sci-Fi. Now I think Ted was a jerk and a tad annoying, but other then that I think EARTH GIRLS make a fun movie worth watching over and over again.
Geena Davis is totally believeable, as sweet but semi-airhead manicurist Valerie - and yes, that is her singing in 'The Ground You Walk On' -, whilst Julie Brown is great as Candy, a girl who knows exactly what she wants and how to get it!
Having spent some time in 'the Valley' some parts of this film were strangely accurate!The chemistry between Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblum was impressive, although - *SPOILER WARNING* - the final moment when Valerie suddenly realises that Mac is the one for her could have been done better in my opinion.
Gena Davis (Valerie) shines in this film, revealing I think her true bubbly,Innocent and fun personality, I found Jeff(Mac0 a little dry, and not much else, Jim Carrey and Damon Waynes, steal the show, Julie Brown, really shines, very hilarious and just plain fun!
Due to the De Laurentiis Entertainment Group going out of business, the film went unscreened for over a year.Three aliens - Mac (Jeff Goldblum, Jurassic Park), Zeebo (Damon Wayans, The Last Boy Scout) and Wiploc (Jim Carrey, Man in the Moon) notice a broadcast from Earth filled with aerobics and half-naked women.
Geena Davis, Jeff Goldblum, Jim Carrey, Damon Wayans, Charles Rocket, Michael McKean and Julie Brown star in this 1989 sci-fi comedy.
It also provides some cheesy, yet amusing musical sequences provided by Miss Brown, Davis & Goldblum have good chemistry and had previously worked together in "The Fly" & "Transylvania 6-5000." Carrey and Wayans also worked together on TV's "In Living Color." I'd give this a view at least once..
Three great actors: Jeff Goldblum, Geena Davis, Jim Carey.
but I think that Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblume make an eerie couple.
I think the best part is the song " I like them big and.....stupid" any, check it out to see jim carey, keenan ivory wayens, jeff goldblume and geena davis's humble beginings.
Instead they are sex craved aliens cruising the galaxy and happened to crash on earth after seeing on Geena Davis.I personally thought that there could be a little more to this movie than there was.
Geena Davis' character really didn't seem to know what she wanted, but then that was the whole purpose of the movie.
This eighties comedy might not be a classic but it is still a lot of fun; Geena Davis plays Valerie, a valley girl whose doctor fiancé Ted is carrying on with one of his nurses.
Her life is changed when the day after she throws him out of the house a trio of hirsute aliens crash their spaceship into her pool named Wiploc, Weebo and Mac. Luckily for them she works at a hairdressing salon so with a little help from her friend Candy they go from looking like a three colourful wookies to being Jim Carey, Damon Wayans and Jeff Goldblum respectively.
