For the past 60 years, a wisecracking alien named Paul (Seth Rogen) has resided at a top-secret military base in America's UFO heartland. When Paul decides he has had enough of Earth, he escapes from the compound and hops on the first handy vehicle -- a rented RV manned by two British sci-fi nerds named Graeme (Simon Pegg) and Clive (Nick Frost) . With federal agents and an accidental kidnap victim's father on their tail, Graeme and Clive hatch a crazy plan to help Paul return to his spaceship.
