I really enjoyed Battle for Terra. The story is a fresh take on the classic Alien Invasion genre with an interesting twist. I found the narrative interesting and the characters well developed... quite a feat for an animated film. Visually, the 3D CG-animation is a feast to the eyes and helps the audience immerse into the story. Excellent & highly recommended.

I saw a special preview screening yesterday and it was pretty good overall. It was actually pretty intense for an animated movie. Perfect for 8 yr. old boys. Go see it. Overall grade B-

nice job for a independent animated feature. character models were a little blockish but the sets and environments were amazing. plot was straightforward. my son 3.5 liked it also. probably will be eclipsed by the big budget movies like UP this summer, but definitely worth your time.

It took an old story (alien invasion) and gave it a new and exciting twist. Very refreshing, me and my wife loved it. Really makes you think, on the one hand you want to root for the Humans because you see their plight, but on the other hand you have to cheer for the Terrians because it is their planet and very existance. Would recommend to anyone.

A simple, but novel story that presents a peaceful alien race that is threatened to extinction by an invading army of human beings. The engaging aspect of this movie brilliantly portrays war in one of its true forms: the tragic struggle between two powers for a critical element of their existence with neither being the clear "right" or "wrong" side. Even though the "happy ending" of this movie is expected from the very first scene, it still comes as a long-desired surprise. This movie was very well-done. It is not really much of a "kid's movie;" consequently, the golden elements presented in this film will probably be completely missed by children and the battle scenes at the end will not really be the exciting "Monsters Vs. Aliens" climax.
