THIS IS THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY BOX SET OF CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND. IT COMES WITH A BOOKLET AND ALL THREE VERSIONS OF THE FILM. THE ONE FOR ME IS THE ORIGINAL THEATRICAL VERSION. RICHARD DREYFUS IS A MAN WHO KEEPS SEEING A PLACE IN HIS MIND AND HE FINALLY GETS THERE TO SEE WHAT THE GOVERNMENT IS DOING ON THAT MOUNTAIN. THE EFFECTS AND THE MUSIC ARE GREAT. THEY WORK TOGETHER TO TELL THIS TALE OF ALIENS VISITING EARTH. ONE OF SPIELBERG'S EARLY FILMS AND ONE OF THE BEST. ALSO, IF YOU'RE A FAN OF JOHN WILLIAMS MUSIC, THIS IS ONE OF HIS BEST SCORES. SEE THIS FILM, YOU WILL ENJOY IT.

Finally a comprehensive edition of this movie is available on disc. Previous versions are OK, but this one actually has three versions of the movie together on one disc. The interactive features showing where each version differs from the other is also cool, but fans will know most of the differences anyway. This one includes the original theatrical release, which has become hard to come by as the subsequent special edition and director's cut dominated as the versions most widely available. I can honestly say I never actually saw the original until now, and I'm not sure if you can even find it in a stand-alone version. It has become a trend for popular sci-fi films to be replaced by subsquent "special editions" or "director's cut," making the one that started it all hard to find until recently. You could say it's all just a marketing campaign to get you to keep buying the same movie, and you are probably right. But this edition is a must for any fan of the film, or if you have always liked the movie but never got around to buying it. I would suggest the Blu-Ray version over the DVD. Might as well upgrade just once! Just keep in mind that while most DVDs will play in most Blu-Ray players, Blu-Ray discs will not play in a DVD player. Hopefully you already knew that!Read full review
This movie will always engage me no matter how often I see it! It really makes me think about other people living on other planets and we don't always have to assume they are going to be mean and hateful.

It has all three versions of the movie. I only watched director's cut but glad to have the option to re-visit the other two versions If I feel like it.

A more positive spin on Aliens, Richard Dreyfuss kills it as the main character!
