U leto 1979. godine, grupa prijatelja u gradiću u Ohaju snima film o zombijima na Super 8 kameri. U sred snimanja prisustvuju katastrofalnoj železničkoj nesreći. Uskoro otkrivaju da se ne radi o nesrećnom slučaju. Ljudi počinju da nestaju, neobjašnjivi događaji nižu se jedan za drugim. Istina je sakrivena od svih žitelja gradića Lilian, i nije sa Zemlje...

E.T. se vratio, gladan, i to u Abramsovom „Super 8“ bliskom susretu treće vrste! „E.T.“, „Bliski susreti“ i „Gunisi“ u paketu. „Pravim filmove kakve sam nekada voleo da gledam“, rekao je Spilberg. J.J. prećutno snima upravo takve. Svi klišei su tu (provincija, srednja klasa, razorene porodice, prošlost kao spona likova, omaži pop-kulturi), ali zbog njih „Super 8“ jeste ono što je trebalo da bude- emotivan. U Abramsovoj „kutiji misterije“ ostao je zaturen samo rasplet oslobođen klišea. Da je drugačije, provocirao bi nostalgiju i bio predodređen da postane deo nje. Poklon starijim generacijama, mlađim dokaz da letnjeg blokbastera ima bez superheroja.
Najkraće: potencijalni klasik...

In 100 words:
E.T. returned, hungry, in Abrams`s "Super 8" close encounter of the third kind! Package of "E.T.", "Close Encounters" and "The Goonies". "I make movies as I liked to watch" said Spielberg. J.J. implicitly captures just such. All the cliches are there (province, the middle class, devastated families, the past as a families’ link, a homage to pop culture), but for them "Super 8" is emotional. In Abrams`s "mystery box" remained just cliche-free conclusion. Otherwise, it would provoke nostalgia and be destined to become part of it. Gift to older generation, for the younger proof there is summer blockbuster without superheroes.
In short: classic to be...
