Awesome summer movie
Was great, the kids were entertaining as all hell, reminded me of the Goonies, or other older movies I'd watch as a kid. Definitely gonna buy this.
Just got home from checking this out. Thought it was really good. It was more about the kids experience of this whole thing rather than the alien itself. The kids acting was really good too. Surprised me. Also stick around for 30~ seconds or so after. There's a bonus.
IMO the train wreck scene alone was worth the price of admission. Fucking incredible.
Pretty good. I wouldn't say great, but worth seeing.
The kids were great actors, their chemistry was perfect, and they were written pretty well. However,

The train wreck scene was badass.
My main gripe would be that the crescendo-climax ratio felt off. It ended fairly abruptly, and I would have liked to see more of how the town dealt with the abuse by the Air Force, how those two dads reconciled more, etc.

But all in all, a very nice homage to Spielberg's work, and such an excellent display of good kid actors.
Am I the only one that felt terrible for finding the girl kinda hot, she's fucking 13
What was the bonus? Totally missed it as we tried to leave before the crowd.
The movie was more about the kids and their adventure and what they did during the events, the parents even the 2 fathers were mere secondary characters and weren't fleshed out very much. The children though were really good.My main gripe would be that the crescendo-climax ratio felt off.

Extra was a full viewing of the movie the kids made.

The kids movie > Super 8 rly.
Living Dead reference and corny model train explosion > real train collision
oh god now you have to pirate the film just to watch the ending credits bonus. Shit really paid off after a rather abrupt-feeling ending.
This this a thousand times this. This is The Goonies, 25 years worth of film advances later. The people I hear getting disappointed by the flick were those expecting more sci-fi elements, and the opaque advertising/promotion campaign did not manage expectations very well.The movie was more about the kids and their adventure and what they did during the events, the parents even the 2 fathers were mere secondary characters and weren't fleshed out very much.

I'm glad they had the zombie movie at the credits because it totally alleviated the ending of the movie, I was so choked up lol.
Just saw it. I thought it was pretty good. but

Saw it last night. The kids and their adventures were pretty good, definitely good acting for kids. Those parts felt like a real homage to Spielberg and the extra ending part was awesome. Loved the little shout out to Romero. But then there was the actual ending.

Movie was just ok but I had the feeling i'd seen this movie once before. The feeling really got strong in the subterranean scene.
I saw this today, I thought it was mint.
