Scorch Supernova is a heroic brash risk-loving alien spaceman. His little brother Gary Supernova is mission control except nobody respects him. He believes that he's the brains and Scorch is the muscles. Worst of all, his son Kip is in awe of Scorch. The next mission is the Dark Planet. 106 advanced lifeforms have tried to make first contact there. None have returned. That planet is Earth. Scorch and Kip have a fight and Kip quits. (or Scorch fired him.) Scorch goes alone and is taken prisoner in Area 51. Gary flies the rescue pod to save Scorch and is captured also.It's bright and it's wild. It's probably good enough for the little kids. Anybody else would find this tiresome. The cast of great comedians are wasted. I actually like the first half of this movie up to the brain freeze incident. It has set up a nice sibling rivalry. Then they are imprisoned in Area 51. The aliens are overly naive. The movie becomes rather boring. It loses any charm or comedy. The situation back on the alien planet becomes disconnected. The movie is better off with Kip and his mom Kira going to Earth as well. That way, the wife and son could rescue the two arguing brothers.

My daughter's love this movie. The movie is meant for kids. My daughter just had her Birthday and all she wanted was some toys from movie and I could not find any. She has been watching for two years and still loves it every time they want to watch it they say scorch me baby very very funny. My husband and I also enjoy this one also it's fun, colorful, exciting and the story line is very cute, and no one dies. when you have to watch as many kid movies as we do over and over and over. Other parents know what I mean.This is one we both love for movie night. So make sure when you read a review on a kid movie the review is coming from a kid or parents. Great Movie.

Scorch Supernova is a big dumb musclebound hero, and his older brother Gary is a nerdy stay-at-home who masterminds things from mission control (both are blue aliens, by the way). But when Scorch is captured during a mission to Earth, Gary reluctantly has to try to be the hero.This is a colourful CGI sci-fi movie for kids, but with enough in the script to keep parents entertained (some well-tooled gags for grown-ups who like their sci-fi pop up throughout the movie's lengths). It goes without saying that animation, design, and voice characterisation are all first rate. It is a reflection on how far CGI features have come since Shrek that a film like this can be regarded as simply OK, par for the course: even as recently as 15 years ago it would have been a knockout.

The start of the movie is just another plot of typical alien films, but as you move on you see a difference. The heroes are aliens (for us!) and the humans are villains. I loved the concept but the film couldn't keep its zeal; the action was vague and too immature. It seems like the film makers wanted to target the youngest age group, but even though should have put the better part of their thinking into it. Films like toy story and ice age enjoy similar themes, but there is something in which they differ from Escape From Planet Earth- Quality of action!To summarize I would insist you better try other films of this kind, like monsters vs aliens
