Box Office Mojo reports that “Escape from Planet Earth” has been released on 3,288 screens and has brought in an estimated $16,066,000 on its first weekend out. IMDb ranked it at #4 in the week's Top Ten. Not too shabby. The promo visuals seem to be playing up the very furry Doc, the three-eyed Thurman, and the hulking cyclopean Io, the three supporting anthropomorphic aliens imprisoned in Area 51, rather than Gary and Scorch Supernova, the Big Blue Aliens who are the movie's stars.
