I love this movie so much
Very Cool!!!
Just perfect...
Good movie but grossly overrated
I was really into it until they started becoming super friendly with the aliens. Thats one thing I can never understand in these movies. The build up and suspense is almost always good then they just have to go and show these funny little alien people walking around and ruin everything. However this movie from 1977 just goes to show how there aren't that many good sci-fi movies anymore even though the tech is obviously here. Makes me sad. Its an alien movie about a guy and also some other people who are having weird visions to visit some weird mountain after their encounters.
This movie is overrated ... surely very well made and still worth watching "for entertainment purposes only!" even today because of its good (but not exceptional) cinematography ... but too overrated no matter what ... yes, a few fine scenes and even maybe a lot of calculated government-approved subversive messages too, but that's about it all ... have seen much better entertaining movies of this director (The Jurassic series for example) and this one barely cuts it even half as much ...
This is my all time favorite movie. The sense of wonder, fear, anticipation and excitment in this piece of art is amazing. I highly recommend for kids and for people who lost that feeling of what it is to be young and curious about life. 1000 out of 10, cannot say enough about this masterpiece!
Extraterrestrials get busted abducting children and have to return them at a synth concert. Includes graphic scenes of mashed potato.
