Wow...

Close Encounters is mesmerizing in every sense of the word. It follows a group of people across the country that witness a strange event, and are all crazed by a vision that none of them understand, but can't help but try to figure out. Steven Spielberg is a genius. He manages to pull of something that was unheard of at the time: nice aliens. Every shot in this film is breathtaking, beautiful, and leaves me with awe. The special effects are revolutionary, and still hold up quite well now. The performances are great, and the final scenes are some of the most famous in film history. This is one of the greatest science fiction films ever made. See it.
