The Vast Of Night: What To Stream If You Liked The Sci-Fi Movie
Super 8 (Hulu)
J.J. Abrams gets some flak for copying other director’s approaches, while putting his own visual style on a familiar concept. If that’s the case, then Super 8 is his loving tribute to the Amblin film label, the production shingle that gave audiences Poltergeist, Gremlins, The Goonies, Innerspace, Jurassic Park and the Back to the Future trilogy. (In fact, Amblin Entertainment helped Abrams’ Bad Robot produce this film, so yeah, homage.) Joel Courtney and Elle Fanning are teenage Midwesterners who love shooting home movies. One evening, they capture a horrific wreck between a truck and a train, leading to a high-stakes confrontation between the kids, the military and an alien who might be on the loose in their town.
