Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/vehicle hit/vehicle crash/environmental

What was that?: Briefly; Roy Neary [Richard Dreyfuss:] he is an an electrical lineman with a wife and kids that experiences this encounter and is desperate to find the answers.

Generally speaking: the storyline/script, framework and pacing of this 135 minutes film [depending on which version you have;] is I have to be honest a bit on the boring and tedious side of things; to the point where towards roughly the three-quarter stage I momentarily fell asleep.

Action, art and character developments; now let's fast-forward to roughly around the final quarter of this project; we have Roy and Jillian Guiler [Melanie Dillon:] she has also experienced an encounter and has a child; they climb up to this location to get a better look. The artistry on reflection [because like I have already illustrated I may not have been fully aware to appreciate it at the time:] it is well thought out and well constructed with its lively colourful palette, the way that they communicate with one another is interesting to say at the very least.

Character developments and performances; both I have to say are okay, but I didn't get or like this kind of student exchange program thing going on and on top of that I like how Roy completely forgot of his parent responsibilities.

This film receives: 5/10, this film is mixed; after everything is said and done, this mark looks and feels the right outcome, don't get me wrong if you are into your science fiction film titles, then give this film a look some time, but then again I would just keep in mind what I have said about it and this film also does have an ongoing sequence in the first closing credits. This film does have some awards accredited to its name 16 Best Cinematography ilmos Zsigmond inners; which include but not limited to  Academy Awards, USA 1987 Oscars pecial Achievement Award Frank E. Warner For sound effects editing. 40 Nominees would also include but not limited to let's go back to this event/ceremony Best Actress in a Supporting Role Melinda Dillon, Best Art Direction-Set Decoration Joe Alves Daniel A. Lomino Phil Abramson [and I should just tell you all together it has 7 nominees to its name.]
