As far as kids movies go, this one is pretty hard core. The somewhat
simple story of an alien crash landing on Earth and wishing to go home
is taken out of fantasy-land and is placed in real life (give or take).
We have government involvement, near death experiences, a whole stack of
"Run!" moments and it's all very dark, really - at least that's how I
remember it.
Some how it all got made out to be the world's most touching story, but I
can't see how such an intense film could be heart warming at all. Heart
pounding, maybe.
