Spielberg does a good job portraying the large scale of these events, as well as the awe it inspires in the people, but for large parts this movie plays more like a special effects tech demo (they still hold up remarkably well!) than a narrative feature. The characters range from somewhat interesting (Balaban and Truffaut) to annoying spawns of hell (all kids), and the ending is way too long and disappointing.

Cricker predicted I'd score this film 86%, which is a close guess, but the film has aged a little bit with the visuals, and there's not much individual importance for any of the characters, not even Richard Dreyfuss's character, who at the end of the day, is kind of hard to like because he's a deuche to his family. That being said, it IS still Spielberg, who is able to weave his magic into this film and turn it into one of the most famous alien films ever made.

I feel like a movie this iconic should have resonated with me mire, but there was just nothing I really enjoyed here. The special effects seem great for the 70s, but that doesn't really bear much weight with me. Maybe I missed something here. The best thing to me was the the characters were real. Even the character who went erratic behaved in a plausible way as the story unfolded
