This movie is so simple it's almost makes it look easy.
Set up the sadness. make it to the point of no return. Enter the point of the story, that being the flying pit driods and let the magic handle the rest. Classic 80's Speilberg presents...stuff.
This movie rocks. The designs of the aliens are damn cool, it has that great "we don't have to explain every little thing" quality that most movie have forgetton of late and despite it's TV movie feel it still summons up all the heart it will ever need.
Not the best movie of it's kind, but very far away from the worst and one of the those movies that has a special place in my movie heart. A top movie.
