Plot

The Pearson family think they have got the ultimate family vacation as they head to their vacation home in Maine. However, soon after arriving to the house, they discover that they are not the only people staying in it since a friendly alien has found the house first. Though the alien is friendly, his friends are not, and they are ready to invade the house. The kids have to gear up and defend their vacation house with everything they have or else the aliens will probe them out to space and destroy the world.[1]

Cast

Aliens

  • Skip: 478 years old (Earth age equivalent: 48), Skip may not be large but he's certainly in charge - even when things don't go his way. He's continually frustrated with his team, and he's not afraid to knock them around, especially brainy little Sparks. Work - taking over the Earth, that is - means everything to him which makes it even more frustrating for him when things go wrong.
  • Assassin: 238 years old (Earth age equivalent: 24), is the muscle in the alien team, but he leaves the brainy work to the others. He's confident and quick and has occasionally been known to go headfirst through a wall, not realizing that it might actually hurt. But that doesn't mean he isn't two and half feet of trouble for the Earthlings he has been assigned to conquer.
  • Razor: 218 years old (Earth age equivalent: 23), she is a one-woman powerhouse, brains and brawn all in one feisty package. She's annoyed when missions don't go well - because she knows that if she's on her own, she'd already be done. Her eyes are always on the prize - the planet to be conquered - and won't be stopped by anyone who gets in her way.
  • Sparks: 204 years old (Earth age equivalent: 21), Geeky, tech savvy Sparks is the kindest - and the most excitable - member of the group. Sparks want the rest of the team to like him, but this is a challenge, because - as some Zirkonians say - a brainy, considerate, and peaceful Zirkonian is hardly a Zirkonian at all!.[4]

The script has been written by Mark Burton and Adam F. Goldberg. The movie is co-financed by Fox and Regency while being distributed by Fox.[1] Marc Resteghini is overseeing for Fox while Kara Francis Smith shepherds for Regency. Shooting has finished in Auckland, New Zealand.[1][5]
