Action Adventure Family Sci-Fi

6.9 / 10

A 12-year-old boy goes missing in 1978, only to reappear once more in 1986. In the eight years that have passed, he hasn't aged. It is no coincidence that at the time he "comes back", a flying saucer is found, entangled in power lines.

Man, they really phoned it in on the trailer. Apparently Disney picked this movie up from a Dutch film company and completed it (hence the obvious changes in David's hair length throughout the film) and didn't want to spend ANY more money on it. Still a favorite of mine, ever since I saw it on broadcast TV "Magical World Of Disney" back in the 80's. - @Wednesday, August 29, 2018 12:09 AM

The future lost the hope of the beauty in what IMAGINATION can really bring to you and others. Doesn't have to have a point middle or end. You make any interpretation you want and everyone's answers are all valid. - @Saturday, August 25, 2018 9:22 PM

Exactly. Not to mention the white spotlight on this machine is killer! Perfect for crowd orientation and maneuvering and examination of potential threats in a battlefield environment! Autonomous cloaking discernment. Remote operation of vehicle via subconscious cybernetic implant. (unknown element/a liquid that resembles condensed light merged with A.I. reflections) Mirrored eye implant equipped with a higher dimensional phase actuator and satelite data visor overlay.. Allows the craft to synchronize with any direction of space/time. To acquire data on any event on earth's plane and feed it subconciously to pilot. (For timeline corrections in real time) Allows for alignment of a "more comfortable" course of what humanity calls "cause and effect". I should know. I have the same alien craft in an [ocean hangar]. - @Sunday, August 19, 2018 1:15 PM
