Most of the alien
movies I’ve seen are about abduction and invasion. Some were great and some are
not. These are usually horror or thriller movies, but what I’ve seen last night
was far beyond the stereotype alien movies most of us known. The Earth to Echo
is like the movie ET were it focuses on the friendship developed between a
human and an extra-terrestrial. This is the same concept of the movie Earth to
Echo.
I’ve seen posters of
Earth to Echo roaming Manila during its showing, but I wasn’t able to see it in
the cinema or even view its trailer. So, I really don’t have any idea what it
is all about. My theory after I saw the trailer is that it is a sci-fi movie
about a robot. And that’s it.
To my surprise, it was
way beyond what I’m thinking. It is one of greatest adventure movies I’ve seen
yet. The concept is great, the story line is great, the actors are great, and
the movie itself is really great.
The story is about a
three best friends who goes to an adventure to discover something in the
dessert miles away from their home that may be causing strange things with
their phones. This is their last night together, one of them will be leaving
and soon all of them will be. The area where they are leaving will be demolished
because it will be used to construct a “freeway”. But they discover something
that is out of this world, literally. They discover an alien and it needs their
help to be fixed and create his spaceship to go back home.
Sounds exciting right?
Yes it really is. While I’m watching the movie, I feel like I’m in the
adventure as well. My heart beats faster with excitement and my smile is
automatic every time they find some of the parts. I was very engage in the
movie and I feel so much younger again.
