About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a family-friendly, bike-ride sci-fi adventure about friendship and helping a stranded visitor, with a similar vibe to The Cat from Outer Space or Race to Witch Mountain; Not for you if shaky handheld footage and familiar story beats bother you.
Pros: sweet friendship theme; fun kid adventure; cute sci-fi companion | Cons: shaky handheld style; familiar E.T.-like beats; uneven kid acting
