Super 8 (IMAX)

J J Abrams' hommage to Spielberg's ET & Close Encounter...but only for like the first third of the movie. This Cloverfield schtick is seriously gonna get old, and I think Abrams felt it towards the end too...then it becames War of the World part deux. The real star of the show is Michael Giacchino's wonderful scoring of the movie, and Elle continues the Fanning sisters' rise to Hollywood royalty.
