But OH, one of them, accidentally reveals his people's hiding place... Forced to flee, he meets TIF, a young girl in search of her mother.

En route! offers an interstellar adventure from a child's point of view, featuring the friendship between a little girl and a clumsy alien. The film blends science-fiction elements (invasion, alien technology, threatened planet) with a simple story centered on emotions, mutual aid and family research. This accessible mix allows complex themes to be dealt with in a playful way.
OH, the BOOV rejected by his family, and TIF, a small human with a strong personality, form a contrasting and endearing duo. Together, they undergo trials that strengthen their bond and enable each of them to gain in confidence.

DreamWorks Animation 's En Route! is a film designed for audiences aged 6 and over, without excessive violence or menace. The humor is based on absurd situations, puns and OH's clumsiness. The music and visual effects reinforce the story's energy, while accompanying a message about accepting differences and the power of cooperation.
Our opinion on En route !:
It's not for nothing that En route! includes an exclamation mark in its title: hyperactive, supercharged and bouncy, this new-style animated film is brimming with a thousand details that themselves are constantly changing color and appearance, creating images that are slightly schizophrenic but always fun and stimulating.
The story, whose initiatory value is hard to see (children's cartoons have definitely stopped trying to provide them with learning elements such as could be found in certain seminal tales), remains light and is punctuated by hilarious little details. But... En route! is not a film to be remembered: it's an iridescent bubble, technological and funny, but one that bursts as soon as you leave the cinema. All in all, a little pleasure...
En route! is an animated film directed by Tim Johnson, produced by DreamWorks and released in 2015. It tells the story of a little girl and an alien who flee their past to build an unlikely friendship. Accessible from age 6, the film blends adventure, emotion and comedy in an original visual universe. It will be available on Netflix from August 11, 2025.
