#MattsMovieMania Earth to Echo

January 13, 2015

After receiving a bizarre series of encrypted messages, a group of kids embark on an adventure with an alien who needs their help.

After a construction project begins in their neighborhood, best friends Tuck (Brian “Astro” Bradley), Alex (Teo Halm) and Munch (Reese C. Hartwig) begin receiving strange, encoded messages on their cell phones. They immediately inform their parents and the authorities, but when no one takes them seriously, the youths decide to crack the code themselves and trace the messages to their source. The youths’ curiosity leads them to a robotic extraterrestrial who desperately needs their help.

“Earth to Echo is about adventure, bravery and excitement, but mostly it’s about friendship- a subject that resonates with audiences of all ages.” -Claudia Puig

“Green and his cast deliver a wonderful surprise. Echo himself, a generically precious alien, is the least of it. The funny, moving, authentic bond among the kids in the movie is the unadvertised draw.” -Tom Russo

Whether it's a stunning restoration, breathtaking HDR or the simple magic of seeing a favorite film in the best possible quality, every release has a story worth telling. This is a place for movie lovers, film enthusiasts, and physical media collectors who believe movies deserve more than a spot in a streaming queue. Here, we celebrate the art of filmmaking, the beauty of the 4K format, and the experience of owning the films that mean something to us.
