Escape From Planet Earth

...marshmallow filmmaking: soft and sweet...

Its secret weapon is a satirically inclined script, reworked by Stephen Fry among others, that disrupts the general factory-line vibe with regular funny lines.

Visually, the film looks good...

Willis and Courtney make a strong match, believable both as fractious family members and also as sarcastic adversaries forced by circumstances to work together.

Alongside jokes about product placement and plugs for convenience store chain 7-Eleven, lessons about teamwork are rendered in passable CGI.
