Did anyone notice the movie had a kind of ETishness to it, that's because the Director was a student of Spielberg's! I gave this movie a BIG 10/10, because I thoroughly enjoyed Joel, he was my sole reason for watching, The era was, I believe 1978 or 79, the late 70's were the prominent years for my teen years, I could relate to some of the elements, but at the same time, some of it seemed inaccurate.
I too had never seen Joel before, he was discovered by a Talent Agency when he accompanied his older brother to an Auditioning, and to look at Joel's sweet face, it's easy to see WHY he was signed almost immediately!





















I had never seen Joel Courtney before though he was good in this film. I noticed that Zach Mills, unlike the other child actors, never got a close-up being relegated to a minor role as Preston. How could they do this to the star of 'Mr Magorium'?
This was your usual kids Sci-Fi romp and there was nothing above the average about it. Why is it aliens look so grotesquely animal-like and rarely, if ever, wear clothes?
My Movie Rating:






Joel was completely adorable in this movie - how did I not watch this earlier!?
My Movie Rating:









Joel Courtney was brilliant and the film is pretty good too!





















Joel Courtney was great! Hope to see more of him. Riley Griffiths and Elle Fanning were tops too.
Unfortunately, the story made no sense and was disjointed. Hard to bring a film back to life with such a 'downer' beginning to it.
And I love Kyle Chandler, but his character in the film was non-redeemable.
However, Super 8 is definitely a must see film. :)











Joel Courtney was SUPER! I thought Ryan Lee was watchable too! I love the scene where as the train crashes, The one boy (didn't catch which one) yelled RUN! I'm very into this kind of Sci-Fi, especially if there are boys in them! as far as I'm concerned, Spielberg just doesn't make bad movies! I definitely want this one on DVD! This movie, to me, has become a treasured classic! I now own it on BluRay!
