Escape to the Movies To Watch ‘Escape From Planet Earth’ Giveaway #EscapeFromPlanetEarth

Trying to find a movie that entire family can watch together can be challenging.  Between the various age groups and preferences of movie genres, narrowing down the choices might often be left to the outcome of a coin toss.  An upcoming 3D Weinstein film, Escape from Planet Earth, incorporates the elements of brotherhood, family bravery, comedy, and action – making it a movie for everyone in the family to enjoy together. (The film hits theaters on Friday, February 15, 2013 so it can be a fun Valentine’s Day weekend family outing).

Famed astronaut Scorch Supernova finds himself trapped by evil forces on the distant “Dark Planet” (aka Earth) where only his nerdy brother Gary can save him in Escape from Planet Earth, an all-new 3D animated family comedy-adventure. Planet Baab’s most celebrated space traveler, Scorch Supernova (voiced by Brendan Fraser), is a global hero whose interplanetary exploits are televised for the enjoyment of his ardent fans. With the help of his brainy brother Gary (Rob Corddry), head BASA Mission Control, Scorch has become a legend, winning the love of beautiful television reporter Gabby Babblebrock (Sofía Vergara) and the devotion of Gary’s hero-worshipping son Kip (Jonathan Morgan Heit).  When BASA’s no-nonsense chief, Lena (Jessica Alba), intercepts a distress signal from the Dark Planet, a notoriously dangerous world in the far reaches of the universe, Scorch jumps at the chance to attempt the once-in-a-lifetime rescue mission. But Gary tries to discourage his bother from making the trip, knowing that no intergalactic explorer has ever returned from the faraway world (also known as Earth).  Scorch realizes too late that he has been lured into a deadly ambush set by the power-crazed paramilitary leader General Shanker (William Shatner). When the trap snaps shut, imprisoning Scorch and some of the most brilliant minds in the universe, Gary rushes to their aid. What he discovers is a plot of interplanetary proportions that only his brains and Scorch’s brawn can stop.
