| Not a good movie
(1) It just steals the E.T. plot line without much improvement. It even steals the concept of finger touch in its poster.

(2) The bicycle riding, and echo saved them from the truck (E.T. make the bike flying), all too familiar.

(3) Echo as a character is very poorly presented and developed.

(4) The kids are not as adorable as those in E.T.

(5) The female character is added awkwardly, almost as an afterthought.

(6) This is the super annoying one, the found footage technique. It is not a horror movie, can we not use this for a kid's movie? It is just uninspiring.

Quotes

Tuck: All right, mom, I'm leaving. Spending the night at Alex's house so we can play a new video game.
Theresa Simms: Have whatever you want, honey.
Tuck: You know what, I lied, actually. We're gonna ride our bikes out into the desert, at night, alone. Without supervision.
Theresa Simms: ...

Goofs

When the kids are driven through the desert by the government agents, there are many saguaros visible. This places them in Arizona, not Nevada where the story is set.

Crazy Credits

After the credits, we see Alex pointing out his phone is acting all weird again.
