Nonetheless, ALF has adapted quite well to his new life. He has the run of his designated area on the base. With ALF eating them out of house and home, a governmental panel has been set up to decide what to do with him. almost everyone seems to enjoy having the furball around, except Colonel Gilbert Milfoil (Martin Sheen) who believes that his mother was driven insane as a result of experiments done on her by extraterrestrials. As a result, he has made it his life’s mission to do away with ALF.
When Captain Rick Mullican (William O’Leary) and Major Melissa Hill (Jensen Daggett) learn of Milfoil’s plan, they kidnap ALF by knocking him out and stash him in a laundry basket, so they can safely take him off the base and save his life. Naturally, hijinks ensue as the three drive across country, all while narrowly avoiding the pursuing Colonel. The trio eventually reach the home of the home of Dexter Moyers (Miguel Ferrer), a former NASA scientist, let go because of his willingness to discuss the existence of alien life. He agrees to help hide ALF, but it soon becomes clear that he has his own plans for our extraterrestrial friend.
Blessed with a surprisingly strong cast (Martin Sheen?!) Project: ALF is much more fun then I anticipated. As a fan of the original series, this provides a satisfying conclusion. The biggest laughs come during a montage of psychological tests ALF is put through. There are also some one liners that will put smiles on the faces of fans.
