Super 8


Last J.J. Abrams movie, sucessfully produced by Steven Spielberg, narrates the story of a group of teenagers witnessing the presence of an alien on Earth. 


Well made, it may be nothing we haven't seen before, but the coolness of the way the relationship among teens is portrayed, it's absolutely worth it; as well as collective nostalgia provoked by watching 1979 life trough a super 8 camera glass.

Here, casting is an investment of time that produce results. It's a quality entertainment movie, where Elle Fanning shines as the future star she will become.

Maybe regarding originality is barely saved, but it was a long time since we didn't see the complicity of The Goonies or Stand by me. And regarding that,  Super 8 gets an A+.
