a really good fun film

Rating: 9/10 (6 August 2016)

i hadn't heard of this film and saw it on cable, from the off i liked it,films with kids in them as the main character always get my attention when i was young and still do. i read some bad reviews of this film, so was a little wary, but i son realized they must be trolls,as this film keeps you watching,even before anything really happens, the kids are great actors. This film isn't realistic as it involves aliens etc..once you understand that then you can enjoy it,its very Steven Spielberg, which i like,lots of effects a unusual story, monsters, laughs, a bit of sorrow. as its based in 1979 they use music from them, and jokes about stuff like Walkmans etc..all in all i liked it, it has a few swear words in it, so maybe not for little ones. i liked it and luckily i taped it so i can watch it again tomorrow.
