Earth to Echo
This wonderful journey, “full of adventure, bravery, excitement, and friendship…has something for audiences of all ages” (Claudia Puig, USA Today). The “lively and likable” (Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times) tale is told through the eyes of Tuck, Munch and Alex, a trio of pals who make an out-of-this-world discovery. After receiving signals on their phones, they meet Echo, a small, but amazingly energetic, alien trying to make his way back to his home planet. As they race to help their new friend, the boys will discover that little Echo has touched their hearts in unexpected ways and changed their lives forever.

We just had movie night on Tuesday instead of Friday night this week. My daughter is in some big soccer tournaments this weekend and did not want her to stay up late, but also we did not want to miss out on movie night. It was perfect timing as Earth to Echo came out on Tuesday! This movie reminded me a combo of Blair Witch (filming style w/video camera), E.T., Flight of the Navigator and the Goonies (fighting to save their homes).
I as well as the kids had been anxiously awaiting this release, we missed it over the summer while at theaters. I figured it would be goo, but was completely blown away by how good it was! It is like a treasure of a movie that people do not know about. You really get attached to the characters and their plight. It also has a little bit of mystery and suspense involved as it is not predictable and you don't know what is coming next.
While the film focuses on three friends who make a discovery of an alien and all they go through to help him build his ship and get back home, there is another storyline going on... one of friendship. The friendship piece hit me hard, it was so great to see these kids having each other's backs no matter what. Friendship lasts no matter where you are in life, no matter how far apart you get. I honestly loved seeing at the end the three boys and girl getting back together a year later...and it was truly a year later (I learned from the special features).
If you are looking for a phenomenal family film, then look no further than Earth to Echo!
