What Planet Are You From? has this oddball charm, mixing humor with a strangely poignant exploration of love and loneliness. Mike Nichols directs a quirky story about an alien, played by the ever-enigmatic Garry Shandling, who navigates the complexities of human emotions while on a mission to procreate. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, balancing comedic moments with more serious undertones that might catch you off guard. The performances have a nice, awkward vibe—Shandling’s delivery is both deadpan and relatable. Plus, there's something quite fascinating about the practical effects used to visualize the alien world, which adds a tangible quality to the story. It’s definitely distinct, not your typical rom-com fare.
