Earth to Echo
Sci-Fi adventure film, Earth to Echo is essentially a 2014 plash of the ET formula. The movie features three young boys: Tuck, Munch and Alex who see their lives change due to highway construction. After encountering some strange signals on their phones, the inseparable trio finds themselves in a desert and discover a friendly alien robot that’s stranded on earth. No longer frightened by the encrypted messages from their smart devices, they now have deal with the government who wants their innocent friend. We’re not recommending this film as a must see, but the Los Angeles Film Festival gave it praise last month and has been seeing positive reviews thus far.
