Rating: 7.6/10 ⭐️ (★★★★ - Excellent)The Good:• The film's narrative is a triumphant fusion of childhood friendships, movie-making, and a thrilling alien sci-fi mystery. • The young ensemble cast delivers remarkable performances, particularly Joel Courtney and Elle Fanning. • J.J. Abrams' direction is masterful, balancing intimate character moments and large-scale action sequences. • The visual effects and Michael Giacchino's score are exceptional, contributing to the film's immersive quality.The Not So Good:• The ultimate resolution might feel too familiar, echoing elements from iconic Spielberg films. • Some characters, like Noah Emmerich's Colonel Nelec, could have more depth. • The film's sentimentality might not align with expectations for a darker sci-fi thriller.
