Atom User Reviews for Close Encounters of the Third Kind 40th Anniversary Release
That was absolutely the best film that I've watched and it's exactly like when it was release 40 years ago. I enjoyed it.
By far, the best alien film (in terms of "encountering" aliens) & best film done by Steven Spielberg. I have never seen the film before but seeing it for the first time on the big screen, it is truly a marvel. Soundtrack is fantastic as well Funny moments sprinkled throughout the film as well.
like seeing it for the first time.
Was not extended version
Performances, Visual Effects, Sound, Cinematography, Score and Directing all still hold up well. See it on the Big Screen while you can.
Wow this is a must see great effects for 40 years ago great storyline
Great original 70s movie.
Metacritic
