    Make it a Matinee

    Seeing that this is a March Animated release, you should be expecting a mediocre movie. This is exactly that. It was slow at points, lacked witty banter, and Brenden Fraser what as pompous as voice over as he in real life. The story has a cute premise, but dragged in several places. There is no bad language, no sexual innuendo's, but the aliens do kiss at the end. (if you care about that)
    My two boys liked it, but they both agreed that "other alien movies" were much better. This is a movie for a matinee or wait for DVD. Or even wait longer to watch it free on TV.

    Mom of 2

    by

    Both my kids loved it..I have a 5yr old son who loved the action parts and it was great because it got him thinking about science related questions. My 3yr old daughte loved it as well she giggled quite a bit and was in no way afraid of the characters. As and adult it was a very entertaining moving and i would definately buy it so that we could have a copy at home!

    Great fun!

    by

    My daughter wanted to see this for her 14th birthday which was the day it opened. I went because She wanted to see it and I must say that a great time was had by all. It was fun, silly, and filled with great lines. I did not even regret paying full freight Friday night prices.

    escape from planet earth

    It was the best movie we ever seen, most of all watching the credits and seeing our son's name. His first big screen movie. Everyone has to see it.

    Great flick for the kids....

    This is definitely one that you can feel comfortable taking your kids too.....humor is simplistic with some slight adult twists that make you giggle. Not overly lengthy either for the little ones.

    Not the greatest movie

    by

    It was ok, there were a few funny scenes. It is Monday now and honestly, I can't even remember the story plot if that will tell you anything.

    It was not that great.

    Nice Family Movie

    If your goal is to keep them entertained the kids liked this movie. The story was child appropriate with some grown up appeal. It was nice family movie.

    Escape from Planet Earth

    by Mumar

    Took 5 year old Granddaughter for our junk food and movie date. We had not previewed this movie prior to attending, so we had no expectations. This movie was funny and engaging. Finding value in knowledge and education is a regular topic of conversation, so the positive examples of intelligent behavior offered support to this. My ganddaughter was very vocally interactive throughout the movie without situations and relationships that she did not understand or had to question the meaning of. Both of us give this movie a thumbs up.

    No to SoSo

    I was really hoping for a great animated movie like Monsters vs Aliens or Despicable Me etc. For me, this movie, despite the great slew of acting talent, just didn't draw me in. The story was ok, the voices were good, but the animation just wasn't there for me. I would say rent this one.

    My 3 year old liked it okay

    by genny92

    It was just okay. There's not a lot of choices lately for the tot crowd so it was nice to have something to take her to see. But the storyline wasn't terribly unique or gripping. There were a few funny bits aimed at us adults who are familiar with the myths surrounding alien landings. But none of the characters were really loveable and the bad guy was so over the top bad, well it was just silly.

    ehhh

    by dc7223

    Nothing too special about the this movie. The only chuckles from the audience came during a few sight gag moments.

    The dialogue lacked any significant wit or charm. This is a rental.

    Fun, funny, exciting for the whole family

    Brought my 4 y/o daughter and 6 y/o son, we all enjoyed it. Some nice references that only adults would get, which were funny but not inappropriate.

    Escape From Planet Earth

    I liked the film. Decent, clean and funny. Cinematography, acting and directing was great. A good movie for adults and children alike. No complaints and my guess left with a new thought about family values. Thanks

    Escape Fom Planet Earth

    Overall good 'kid-flick' without insulting the intelligence. Good fun, and good to hear some familiar voices. Includes a recognition of some of us 'old-timers' by having a nod to the Beatles.
    Clean, funny, tried-and-true plot with a new twist.
    Might be worth saving the theatre money and simply buying it when it comes out.
