Movie Description
CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND is Steven Spielberg's extraordinary film about a man named Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) who becomes obsessed with meeting extraterrestrials after encountering a UFO on an abandoned road one night. Against the wishes of his wife (Teri Garr) and children, Neary, along with another witness to the sighting (Melinda Dillon), travels to a mysterious mountain where the government has built a landing strip hoping to attract the aliens. Director François Truffaut costars as Claude Lacombe, one of the organizers of the project. Spielberg hoped to follow up the huge success of JAWS with a low-budget film that would be an easy shoot, but, thanks in part to the complicated special effects, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS quickly snowballed into being an expensive endeavor but a commercial and artistic success. No one who has seen the film has ever looked at a plate of mashed potatotes the same way again.

      The World's First Introduction with On-Screen GREYS
    Review created: 05/11/09
    5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

    Forgetting the fact this movie is almost 30 years old, we all must have been bowled over to realize that even the main stream movie industry had enough sense to study into and show us the first on-screen rendition of the so-called GREYS. The children Greys were very freaky and it also shows us a real lanky Grey with long arms.

    Thanks Hollywood. This movie was true genius and captures the excitement of actually thinking that the aliens are interested in contacting us now in a friendly and loving way.

    I'll have to give this movie a 5/5, since it is considered the best movie ever to UFO lovers all around the world.
