Synopsis:

Jim Parsons voiced a character by the name of “Oh”. Oh is a sweet, pure hearted “Boov” that is rejected by all others because of a series of mistakes. One final mistake leads him to meet a lost girl “Trip” who is voiced by Rhianna. The story continues as they both join in an adventure to find that one thing they are looking for.

Review:

In an attempt to be funny, the sarcastic humor is childish and obnoxious. Despite the tasteless humor, the storyline follows through, and the emotion behind the voices are well executed. Friendly aliens called “Boov” run from planet to planet in an attempt to escape from their nemesis the “Gorg”. One particular “Boov” known as “Oh” makes one final mistake, which is how he encounters “Trip”. Trip, who is not very fond of the cowardly Boov, makes a deal with “Oh” requiring that he has to help her find a lost loved one. “Oh,” at first is just using Trip as an escape route from all his foes. In their journey to both run away, they are faced with different difficulties and tragedies. Most of the movie is cliche, although there are few scenes that are humorous. In the writers struggle to be funny, it just becomes a distasteful enactment that makes you embarrassed to even be watching it. Overall the stereotypical plot and dull humor ends in a way you would think it would. I would not suggest you waste your time or money to see this.
