Entertainment Reviews:
...An undisputed classic....It's Richard Dreyfuss's finest hour...
Total Film
4 stars out of 5 -- [T]he epitome of a truly great film....It is as good as you remember it and serves as a reminder of a time when blockbuster entertainments were still willing to show real ambition.
RogerEbert.com
Steven Spielberg's shining, glowing masterpiece will never wear out its welcome.
Wall Street Journal
"Close Encounters" proves to be a magic act with dramatic interludes.

Los Angeles Times
A pseudo-mystical story that turns out to be boring, poorly constructed, and too long. [Full Review in Spanish]

El Pais (Spain)
What the film is 'about', in a way, is its own illusionism, the process by which it creates a world we are invited to share.

Monthly Film Bulletin
5 stars out of 5 -- [I]t remains awe-inspiring stuff that has held up better than the other big science-fiction film of 1977.

Product Description:
CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND is Steven Spielberg's extraordinary film about a man named Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) who becomes obsessed with meeting extraterrestrials after encountering a UFO on an abandoned road one night. Against the wishes of his wife (Teri Garr) and children, Neary, along with another witness to the sighting (Melinda Dillon), travels to a mysterious mountain where the government has built a landing strip hoping to attract the aliens. Director François Truffaut costars as Claude Lacombe, one of the organizers of the project. Spielberg hoped to follow up the huge success of JAWS with a low-budget film that would be an easy shoot, but, thanks in part to the complicated special effects, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS quickly snowballed into being an expensive endeavor but a commercial and artistic success. No one who has seen the film has ever looked at a plate of mashed potatotes the same way again.
