PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
"Broader and more accessible than either Shaun Of The Dead or Hot Fuzz, Paul is pure Pegg and Frost - clever, cheeky and very, very funny. You'll never look at E. T. in the same way again. (...) Rating: **** (out of five)" (Chris Hewitt: Empire)

----------------------------------------
Here's a movie that teeters on the edge of being really pretty good and loses its way (...) Maybe Paul, its alien hero, should have been sent back to the shop for a rewrite (...) Rating: **1/2 (out of four)" (Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times)

----------------------------------------
"A mild, meandering comedy (...) Rating: **(out of four)" (Carrie Rickey: Philadelphia Inquirer)

----------------------------------------
"Rogen and helmer Greg Mottola's laconic stoner style should've meshed well with the Brits' tongue-in-cheeky approach. In practice, the cogs jam somewhat, resulting in fitfully funny but anodyne entertainment" (Leslie Felperin: Variety)
