Review of Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) by Owen P — 18 May 2010
"Close Encounters" is the kind of intelligent science fiction that has become all too rare these days. It possesses a sense of wonder and adventure that is refreshing amongst the pessimism and violence of more modern similarly themed films.
And it's one of the absolute best films in Steven Spielberg's impressive oeuvre, a feat in and of itself. It's original, exciting, mysterious, suspenseful, and visionary, well deserving of its classic status.
