Review of Super 8

Super 8 (2011)
6/10
Start greats, then progressively turns into a giant-clichè.
25 May 2021
Warning: Spoilers
First half hour is great, feels like Stranger Things, then progressively all the clichè for these kind of films starts kickin in (like mad scientist that in the basement of the school hides precious secret tapes where he explained Area 51-like stuff) and in the last 30 minutes what could have been a great movie turns in a sort of sad "ET. Phone. Home".

The last ten minutes are the worst, and made me take away another star from the rating.

A missed opportunity. What a shame, the kids were great, for sure the best part of the movie.
