Great acting by the kids, especially Elle Fanning and Joel Courtney. Although this is a science-fiction movie, it is not overrun by meticulous, complicated science nor big explosions and scary monsters. Rather, the gist of the storyline originates from the characters and families of a small town in Ohio, and illustrates how a massive incident could impact the lives and world view of its inhabitants, and vice versa, sometimes big events could be triggered by internal feelings. However, I believe the movie lacked any sparks of excitement of enlightenment, and the dialogues and cinematography seems a little too simplistic. An okay movie with a respectable premise, but is it truly memorable? I wouldn't say so.

There is nothing outstanding in the plot, but the acting of the male and female protagonists is good

Before entering the theater, I was looking forward to watching this suspenseful and mysterious movie. Of course, JJ also made me enter the movie to watch the movie! In fact, I think the film should be praised the most in terms of soundtrack, shooting and special effects. Instead, a group of children are used as the main line of the story, but the film still lacks strength. I don't think the plot is too compact. As for the ''suspense'' part of this movie, it's a bit like the ending of D-9, but it doesn't have much depth.
