An American astronaut believing himself to be the first person ever to set foot on Planet
51 gets the shock of his life in this animated adventure comedy featuring the voices of
Dwayne Johnson, Jessica Biel, John Cleese, and Gary Oldman. Captain Charles "Chuck"
Baker (voice of Johnson) was on a mission to boldly go where no man had gone before, a
remote celestial body dubbed Planet 51. The scientific community had surmised that
Planet 51 was uninhabited, so when Captain Baker steps out of his spacecraft to discover
a race of tiny green people living in quaint communities reminiscent of 1950s America, he
can't quite believe his eyes. Unfortunately, the tiny extraterrestrials suffer from a universal
fear that their utopian community will one day be overrun by alien invaders...just like the
extra-large astronaut who now stands before them. As General Grawl (voice of Gary
Oldman) and Professor Kipple (voice of John Cleese) attempt to capture the peaceful
visitor so they can dissect him and learn more about his anatomy, Captain Baker must
count on his robot companion, "Rover," and his new friend, Lem, in order to navigate this
strange new world and find a way back home before it's too late. ~ Jason Buchanan, All
