Better then expected and worth seeing!

Rating: 9/10 (22 December 2011)

I just want to say that I really enjoyed this film and I could sit down and watch it all over again. If you haven't seen it, the go rent it and sit back and enjoy the ride but don't take it to serious, it is aimed at the middle school to high school age group in my opinion. Another reviewer mentioned that it had an E.T. feel to it and I would have to agree. It even gave me the same feel good feeling while I was watching it. I thought the acting was very good for most, especially Elle Fanning.. She was simply amazing. About the only thing that was a little over the top was the train wreck, although it was cool; just not very realistic. But then few movies (if any) are perfect. It's well made and worth seeing.
