I caught this on a plane over to Thailand and having seen the trailer I was drawn in with the pop culture in it. Yes, it's not exactly ground breaking, yes, there is loads of eighties pop culture references, yes, it's very Speilbergy in its presentation, but it was damn entertaining and very enjoyable to watch. I'm not going to heap critical acclaim on it, I'm not going to pretend it's clever or packed with soul searching deepness because it isn't. Not all films need to have these attributes to be worth watching and This falls in to the purely entertaining with out having to think too hard about it. It's also worth noting the casting is solid and Tye Sheridan puts in a good leading role performance. Def one to watch, just don't go into it thinking it's going to blow your mind.
