Escape from Planet Earth (U)

Escape from Planet Earth (U)

Animation, Adventure, Comedy

Astronaut Scorch Supernova finds himself caught in a trap when he responds to an SOS from a notoriously dangerous alien planet.


The critical consensus

It won’t linger in the memory and it’s not going to challenge The Lego Movie at the box office – which has already earned an astonishing £27 million in the UK - but it’s a lively, unpretentious adventure that should delight young children and has enough pop culture gags and sly humor to amuse their parents.

****(*)Henry Fitzherbert, Daily Express, 05/03/2014

A sharp and at times genuinely funny script diverts attention from the ordinary visuals of this animated alien escapade.

***(*)(*)Mike McCahill, The Guardian, 07/03/2014

This innocuous interstellar animation plays to the younger end of the market with undemanding (and largely unoriginal) thrills and spills.

***(*)(*)Mark Kermode, The Observer, 09/03/2014

Standard, predictable, whizz-bang bullshit.
