Earth to Echo Transports to Theaters July 2, 2014

Earth to Echo is opening in theaters nationwide on July 2, 2014. It features four friends (Alex, Munch, Tuck and Emma) who find a small cute alien. In this found footage adventure, the kids race against time to save Echo and get him home.

Story:

In Relativity’s PG summer family adventure movie, Tuck, Munch and Alex are a trio of inseparable friends whose lives are about to change. Their neighborhood is being destroyed by a highway construction project that is forcing their families to move away. But just two days before they must part ways, the boys begin receiving a strange series of signals on their phones.

Convinced something bigger is going on, they team up with another school friend, Emma, and set out to look for the source of their phone signals. What they discover is something beyond their wildest imaginations: a small alien who has become stranded on Earth. In need of their help, the four friends come together to protect the alien and help him find his way home. This journey, full of wonder and adventure, is their story, and their secret. (Call Him Echo)

From what I have seen in the trailers and what I have read, this story will be a cross between E.T., Transformers, and Super 8 with a little Batteries Not Included flare. While there are several naysayers out there who think that this type of movie has been overly done, I am not one of them and I am fairly excited to see Earth to Echo. I have to admit that the main reason I want to see this film is because of the cute little Alien. I mean look at that face:

How can anyone not fall in love with this little guy? It reminds me so much of the Batteries Not Included Aliens.
