Earth to Echo - Miniview


In an effort to get more reviews posted in a timely manner, I have created the "MiniView" which is a less comprehensive yet still informative version of my normal movie reviews.

Earth to Echo is an adventure film about a group of kids who find themselves on an otherworldly adventure. This family friendly motion picture was directed by Dave Green and stars a relatively unknown cast including Teo Halm, Brian "Astro" Bradley, Reese Hartwig, Ella Wahlestedt, and Jason Gray-Stanford.
