Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)

★★★★1/2

When a series of UFO’s appear all over America, the government begins receiving transmissions and strange evidence from the UFO’s. Meanwhile, a line worker who encountered a UFO starts having strange visions of a mysterious mountain. While the government quickly tries to find out who and what the UFO’s are, the worker teams up with a young mother to find this mysterious mountain so that she can get her son back from the aliens. This certainly isn’t Spielberg’s masterpiece but with its warm-hearted nature, beautiful storyline and amazing cinematography, it’s very hard to not like this film. It certainly is one of the best and rare non-threatening alien invasion movies. The only problems I had were concerning some story ideas but otherwise, it’s an absolute must.
