"Good Sequel!"
25 August 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Don Ameche, Wilford Brimley, Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Steve Guttenberg, Courteney Cox and Brian Dennehy star in this 1988 sci-fi sequel. This takes place 5 years after the events of the original with senior pals, Art (Ameche), Ben (Brimley), Joe (Cronyn) and their wives returning to Earth from planet, Anterrea to help save more cocoons at the bottom of the ocean and reunite with their loved ones in St. Petersburg, Florida. Tandy also returns as Joe's wife, Alma, Guttenberg as boatman, Jack, Cox plays scientist, Sarah who finds one of the cocoons befriending the alien inside and Dennehy also appears briefly at the end as Walter. After Joe and the others return they start feeling normal and their youthful energy starts to fade where they decide to stay on Earth or go back to Anterrea. This is a good sequel with a great cast and excellent score by James Horner I recommend.
