Escape from Planet Earth

Feel-good but not cloying, zippy but not frenetic, and refreshingly free of snark, the default setting for a lot of kids' fare these days, the feature takes a pleasingly retro-futuristic stance on matters of décor and attitude.

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.

Escape From Planet Earth makes a tolerable diversion for a winter’s day or evening, just not a memorable one.

It’s unchallenging fun for a younger crowd, but adults might feel like they’re staring down a colorful 24-piece board puzzle, trying to figure out how such a simple activity could be drawn out over 90 minutes.

The late Douglas Adams summed up Earth as “mostly harmless,” a description that also applies to this eminently tolerable animated time-filler.

Not recommended for anyone but the hardiest of animation completists, this one is a definite skip. There’s nothing to note, nothing to grasp, nothing in which to find mirth. You could Escape from Planet Earth, but you’re better off just ignoring it.

This movie is a mess: It keeps doubling back on itself – a twisting pretzel of a plot that doesn’t really make sense.

I don understand why people give this cartoon such a low review number... The good things about this cartoon: - Story has a deeper layer. It's all about the relationship between aliens, which you as viewer can reflect back to yourself. A heart warming cartoon that is at par with the greater productions of Disney or Dreamworks. Great ending. - The graphics are less good than the best cartoons, difference is like disney 10 and Escape from earth is 7.5, but hey , a good cartoon is a combination of multiple things that make it good or best. - As a cartoon lover, I like only the cartoons that are not too expensive and have a good morale. - Common jokes woven into the story. - Bad guys loose and good guys win! If you see this cartoon, watch it, you will not be disappointed! recommended!

Gets far too much hate, it's an enjoyable enough movie and I loved it as a kid.

Is generally pretty funny and entertaining but mundane in terms of visuals and story.

This movie was nothing like the trailer at all. Very dissapointing, and the jokes are repetitive and unfunny. Animation is good, but i feel like they could've put more effort. You can tell during the movie that they're trying so hard to make it serious.

Quickly, escape the horrors of this movie. Escape from planet earth is hard to watch without getting bored. Characters are as flat as the humor. The story is poorly told with nothing much really going on. I would recommend you avoid this mess of a film.
