Anybody who has written him off because of his string of stinkers–or anybody who’s too young to remember The Goodbye Girl–may be shocked at the accomplishment and nuance of Richard Dreyfuss’s performance in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Here, he plays a man possessed; contacted by aliens, he (al… More >>

…I watched it at school, and everyone in my class was either sleeping or scratching their heads in confusion. I just don’t understand why Spielberg made this movie…along the way, people started talking in random languages (pardon me for being vague, I don’t remember WHICH languages) and, well…it was just weird. Why did they? I have no idea. The ending just baffled me…*spoiler* why did he walk onto the spaceship? HUH? Maybe I was just having a bad day, but it really made no sense to me. I was alternating between bored and frustrated at not understanding the ‘plotline’.
Quite a poor effort, conclusively…this movie was weak.

This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It is long and boring. The main character is so easy to hate which makes the movie even harder to watch, when you wish he was dead. Not to mention the ending left me with the taste of rotting fecal in my mouth.

Really, the title says it all. Close Encounters of the Third Kind is one the all-time great films and certainly deserves to be release in hi-def. However, when will the studios “get it” and realize that they are never going to get the consumer to move to hi-def en masse until they start offering titles at more user-friendly prices?

Who likes this movie? How could you possibly make sense of a film like this? Steven Spielberg really messed up this time around, making a movie about space and yet most of it takes place on earth. Duh…what kind of science fiction movie takes place on Earth in the 1970s? This one, I guess.
If you like to see movies about Richard Dreyfus playing with carbs, then you’ll love Close Encounters. And special effects? I don’t know why they’re considered so revolutionary because they’re not half as good as anything I saw in ID4 (that’s what I call Independence Day) or MIB II (Men in Black II) or iRobot or even Wild Wild West. Apparently in Steven Spielberg’s mind all space aliens are going to terrorize our planet after they arrive in a big Simon (complete with flashing colored lights and the annoying four musical notes)
The best thing about this movie is that it ends (sadly after 6 1/2 hours of people climbing on mountains and staring into the sky). Photosynthesis is more fun to watch than this movie. He’s lost his skills since Star Wars.
