10. Super 8 J.J. Abrams pays tribute to Steven Spielberg's early Amblin classics (think E.T. or Close Encounters) with a throwback scifi thriller about film-savvy teenagers tracking an alien who escapes in their small town. While the young actors recruited for Super 8 gave the blockbuster an unexpected heart, our critic says Abrams "seamlessly reproduces a tune you loved as a kid by hitting all the right notes and strumming most of the rhythms without adding much in the way of improvisation." |
