Close Encounters of the Third Kind | Rotten Tomatoes (2024)

Audience Reviews

Audience Member Pointless movie. No drama and no real suspense. Just a really slow build up, to what would be now, a disappointing ending Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/08/24 Full Review Sachin E Apart from the amazing cinematography and visual effects, there isn't much in the film. Storyline is mid, characters and dialogues are not well written and the several cringe moments make it less appealing. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/13/24 Full Review Trending Right Now 2 Fantastic movie with a great cast and doesn't age, I think Steven Spielberg knows something as The movie very much could be of today. It is a must for any sci-fi buff Or even just family viewing.For 1978 Special effects are absolutely fantastic and movies of today, don't come anywhere close. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/29/24 Full Review Raphaël While it might seem a bit outdated nowadays, this movie is an absolute sci-fi masterpiece. It is a movie about mundane humans making an almost mystical experience. Over the course of the movie, we go from expectation to amazement while witnessing unwilling witness of UFO encounters. All of this makes the movie believable, pulling the audience through a plot that reaches a sublime climax without ever going over the top. The theater version is awesome and the director's cut is even better.It's among my top 10 sci-fi movies. A must see Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/06/24 Full Review Brianna B Meh, just not a movie for me Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/24 Full Review Harrison D This Movie...
