There is a group of
aliens traveling from planet to planet.
They want to see what kind of species inhabits each of the different
planets. They examine Earth and
they want to know if humans are decent.
If they are, this planet will be welcome to be their friend. They choose one inhabitant and give
that person the power to do whatever they want. They choose Neil Clarke. He is a teacher and the headmaster constantly berates
him. He’s attracted to his
neighbor, Catherine and he doesn’t
have the courage to approach her.
In the beginning,
Neil starts making unwise choices because he doesn’t know he has the
power? He gets better but the
choices can turn out unexpectedly!!
The scenes with the group of aliens are not very funny? 3* (This movie is OK)
