Spacegirls in Beverly Hills

"Spacegirls in Beverly Hills" is a 2009 comedy sci-fi flick that perfectly balances the flair of classic B-movies with the glitz and glamour of the famous 90210 district. Stacked with offbeat humor, classic nods to old-school science fiction films, and an ensemble of quirky and appealing characters, the film takes audiences on a comedic yet adventurous journey. Set within the backdrop of one of America's most iconic districts, Donna Spangler, Allie Moss, and Brittan Taylor star in this romp of a movie. Their performances bring life, charm, and a touch of glamour that adds a unique sparkle to the movie.

The film primarily revolves around Queen Bota (Donna Spangler) and her posse from another planet, comprised of Princess Janera (Allie Moss) and Princess Vixa (Brittan Taylor). The three space ladies were originally leading a peace-loving and harmonious life on the distant planet of Batvia, until an unexpected chain of events compelled them to hit the road - or rather, take to the stars. Forced to leave their beloved planet, they find themselves in the most unlikely of places, none other than the star-studded Beverly Hills.

As these space girls blend in among Hollywood's elite, "Spacegirls in Beverly Hills" takes the viewers on a wild, entertaining journey. The film meticulously highlights how these alien aristocrats with blue blood and roguish charm try to navigate the intriguing world of Beverly Hills. Their journey is filled with entertaining action and humor, as they're trying to adapt to this new world, and its high-rolling lifestyle, while also planning to save their home planet.

A significant chunk of the film is devoted to the humorous troubles and triumphs these aliens face, adjusting to Earth and its unique, so very human quirks. Whether gallivanting through the shopping districts, experiencing Earth's cuisine, or deciphering our complex social customs (internet dating, anyone?), these alien ladies manage to take everything in stride, always with a clever quip on their lips and a determination in their hearts.

Donna Spangler as Queen Bota shines in the role of a supreme space-beauty, bringing both gravity and wit to her character. Allie Moss' portrayal of Princess Janera is full of youthful energy and expressive versatility, while Brittan Taylor’s character Princess Vixa adds a balance with her poised and quirky demeanors. The trio crafts a colorful and dynamic relationship that propels the plot effectively. Their interaction, full of comedic comebacks and one-liners, is the highlight of the film, providing a myriad of entertaining moments.

This film is director David DeCoteau's telltale insight into the lives of the ultra-rich elite of Beverly Hills, but switched up with a hilarious alien twist. DeCoteau, well known for his work across various B-movies, takes his knack for the campy, goofy, and outrageous, and combines it with the caricature of the ultra-lavish lifestyles of Beverly Hills, culminating in a one-of-a-kind film experience.

From the fashion, the glamour, the elaborate set designs, to the film's essential whimsical tone, "Spacegirls in Beverly Hills" is a departure from the mainstream, serving up a hearty helping of fun for the audience. Beautifully bringing together the exceptional performances by the lead stars, the film strikes the right balance between a comedy, a send-up and a sci-fi adventure.
