Director J. J. Abrams was trying to channel the spirit of 1980's era Steven Spielberg and has failed miserably; it is closer to a poor M. Night Shyamalan effort. There is none of the wonder and whimsy of a Spielberg movie and this film is completely devoid of a sense of humour. The child actors have no charisma; Elle Fanning is the poor man's Dakota Fanning. Things are continuously blown up without any rhyme or reason. All I learned about the creature is that its skin is grey and that its spacecraft is composed of junk and white Rubik's cubes.
