This could have been a funny and effective short film, stopping at about the ten or twenty minute mark. But the joke - essentially showing people how odd the dating habits we take for granted really are - isn't very novel or funny by the end of a 90-minute mockumentary. It's really a comedy sketch that drags on far too long. There are funny parts, they're just too few and far between and they stop before the halfway mark (oh, and some sex scenes that don't seem to belong in a comedy).

Take one part nature documentary, two parts romantic comedy, and a dash of bad acting and you have yourself "The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human." The narration is actually quite clever, though repetitive at times. There are also of plenty interesting interludes which are good for a laugh or two. But the bulk of this movie is a straightforward boy-meets-girl story that we've seen too many times, unique only in how _BAD_ the acting is. Without the narration, I'd have microwaved the DVD to prevent future generations from being scarred by this film - the witty commentary is literally the only redeeming value. So, although this film has some good lines, it should in no way be confused with a good movie. It's barely even worth watching as a "bad movie," simply because the romantic comedy aspect is so cliche, completely predictable, and though there's one little plot twist, it only serves to reinforce how _bad_ of a movie this actually is.

Briljant concept, done good, but not great. Really funny at some times ("It's SPERMINATOR, the protector of the womb!!!"), a bit boring at others. Right on the spot most of the time tough. Now turn off your universal translator and start mating! 7 outta 10

Some terrifically oddball comments from David Hyde Pierce as an alien commenting on the human mating ritual. Though the story is really follows all of the stereotypes about how people meet (and mate.) There's plenty of great humor, and a few really great laughs. And Carmen Electra... On top of being spectacularly beautiful, she's a decent actress. She first surprised me on the TV show "Just Shoot Me" with her great sense of timing and delivery. I'd love to see more of her in funny roles. This is a perfect party movie.

Hey, this ain't crap. This is a surprisingly decent movie. Basically, the life and relationship of a couple is monitored by aliens. The film is a documentary of human mating habits as seen through extraterrestrial eyes. "The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human" is a comedy that works on several levels. The narration by David Hyde Pierce is odd and funny. There is a lot of strange dialogue and clever comments that I do not see in mainstream comedies. It sometimes works well to actually make all humans look stupid. The witty narration does wear out after a while since it relies on one basic principle: The alien narrator misunderstands common everyday behaviors in the humans and instead makes up his own weird theories on what they are doing. So we will see a shot of someone doing something ordinary, but the narration will blow it out of proportion. The couple is relatively interesting and goes through some interesting phases in their relationship. The film often goes into detail as it touches on a number of situations. The acting is decent enough especially from Carmen Electra who shows that there's more to her than just looks. That babe is hot and here she makes herself look real cute. The funniest and most original moments occur when a group of men dressed in white, representing human sperm, race against each other, finishing in a different way each time, depending on the situation. This was footage filmed by the aliens in order to explain sex better. Even this gets a little tedious though. "The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human" is not a bad movie considering the low budget and other constraints. The idea is original, bizarre, and often funny. I don't think I mentioned yet that Carmen Electra is hot. If you are going to see a corny B movie, this is not a bad idea. I was going to give it a 6 out of 10, but I think I'll give it an extra point for effort and potential. Overall, a 7 out of 10.

I watched this last night on sex TV, (its not all porno movies, i watch it very little, i'm a huge fan of David Hyde Pierce, i looked at the info box, saw his name and i was hooked, i've heard about it before, little nudity and swearing ( i don;t see the point in nudity in comedy movies). i love the voice overs, and the humor that David puts in to it. great work. i hope that David does have another hit show. now i'm just filling up space, damn 10 line min. i give it a 5 out of 7. don't like what i say, come here closer and i'll say it again. seven

This is a whimsical look at the human race through the eyes of an alien studying human beings and their mating rituals, much as a scientist might study the same behavior in chimps or zebras. The film is especially enjoyable if you're an aficionado of those nature pieces on the Discovery channel. The observer focuses on a young couple from their meeting at a bar, through their dating and sexual experimentation, to their marrying and having a child together. Carmen Electra looks stunning as the female of the pair, the male is played by some nameless swinging dick I don't remember. there is not any explicit sex or even nudity in the film, surprising after some of the comments I've read, but you can see far more skin AND sex on an episode of NYPD Blue. I'm no expert, but I really liked this film and so did my wife, a most unusual occurrence. I recommend it to anyone with a rather dry sense of humor and a taste for the subtle. (You won't see anybody smashed in the face with a pie) If I had to refer people to one underrated film of the last 20 or so years, this would be it. Take a chance and see it if you have a high I.Q. and are weary of car crashes and every film consisting of African- American actors calling each other the "N" word. Not mentioning any names here.
