Escape From Planet Earth 3D Reviews

A ripper sci-fi comedy adventure guaranteed to galvanize the attention of the red-cordial crowd...delightful, pastel-coloured, busy piece of bubble-gum kids' cinema has fun playing up all the alien conspiracy theories.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5

Aliens of all shapes and sizes provide amusing banter in this likeable, happy and colourful 3D animation in which planets are saved and family ties nurtured.

A lightweight, warp-speed, brightly colored trifle that should delight small children and sporadically amuse their parents.

A surprisingly well-produced effort that fills the recent vacuum of family films without totally sucking.

It never discovers new worlds, but "Escape From Planet Earth" is, in its genial way, escape enough.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5

Passable animated entertainment is stronger on humor than adventure.

It ... provides a few smiles, and a decent amount of rainy-day, kiddie entertainment.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4

A sci-fi chuckler that somehow manages to elude tedium, despite being a revisionist rip of rival 'toons, from Pixar on down.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4

What Escape from Planet Earth may lack in novelty, it compensates for with a zippy pace and lively voice characterizations, led by Brendan Fraser, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sofia Vergara and William Shatner.

Content to pitch most of its plot twists and gags squarely at kids.

An animated film that goes lamely where many have gone before.

Full Review | Original Score: C-

[The aliens] find 7-11s hypnotically beautiful and learn to love Slurpees. There are several scenes involving Slurpees.

Escape from Planet Earth is a mildly entertaining examination of intergalactic sibling rivalry that will probably appeal to many younger kids, but not to the parents who have to sit through it with them.

Full Review | Original Score: 5.2/10

The best thing I can say about Escape From Planet Earth is that I didn't end up hating it as much as I thought I was going to during the first half.

Full Review | Original Score: 0/5

An amiable animated feature that should entertain the younger kids.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/10

Just like its hero and his grounded starship, Escape From Planet Earth is, for much of the film, a decidedly earthbound adventure.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4

Colorful as the 3-D aliens-among-us comedy is to look at, though, Corddry is handed a role that's beige as can be, and so are his castmates.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4

Serviceable sci-fi - stopping momentarily at local theaters en route to its destiny on DVD as generic, escapist diversion for youngsters, teaching teamwork and preaching family loyalty and love.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/10

An energetic but thoroughly watered-down kiddie flick.
