Kent Hill Film Threat There’s something about it that felt like a ’90s movie, of course, minus the phones. But that sense of adventure, wonder, mystery, and real-life family struggles render some sections almost Spielbergian. Rated: 7.5/10 Oct 6, 2025 Full Review Shikhar Verma High on Films Jesse Edwards’ harmless coming-of-age film employs 80s throwback tropes to present a creature feature that becomes entirely listless because it is neither able to conjure up dread nor some form of mystery that would make it memorable. Rated: 2/5 Oct 3, 2025 Full Review Mark Jackson Epoch Times This wonderful coming-of-age adventure and kiddie-monster movie belongs in company of films such as “The Goonies,” "E.T., and “Stand By Me.” Rated: 3/5 Aug 8, 2025 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru A captivating, fun and exhilarating sci-fi adventure for the whole family.

Walter J Buck I liked that I was in the movie and got to see my friends in it as well Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/04/25 Full Review Rebeca G One of the worst movies I have seen in the past few months Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/18/25 Full Review Sheevaa R The acting was painful. Regretted watching this. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/18/25 Full Review Grace D Awesome family movie! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/05/25 Full Review Garrett S You are in for a BIG surprise. This movie is REALLY REALLY GOOD! It has it all, suspense, comedy, thrills. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and yet it is still a family movie. Very entertaining with subtle messages of the importance of family and friendships. The Director Jesse Edwards has what it takes to be a major Director in the film industry. The cast could not have been better. Hudson Henley, Allee Sutton Hethcoat, Josh Futcher, Ayla Bullington and Brycen Patterson were spectacular! Big careers ahead for them and the musical score was absolutely fabulous. You will be SO glad you saw it and SO SO sad if you don't as you continue to hear incredible reviews around this must see film. Thank you to everyone involved. I can't wait to see the next film from Jesse Edwards. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/08/25 Full Review Erin S This movie is a MUST!! Just enough thrill for all ages! “Haley” played by Ayla Bullington was such a great actress in this! Bright futures ahead for these young stars!
