I enjoyed this. It was a lot of fun, without being over the top. It was subtle.
Yes, it was a cliched view of alien life forms from 60-70 years ago, but it didn't matter. The story was the thing that mattered and great performances from the four main characters made this all the more enjoyable. I particularly like the way Jane Curtin's nosey neighbour did not spoil things but contributed to the subterfuge when it seemed like she was going to spoil everything.
A really nice feel good film.
Milton lives a quiet life of routine in a small western Pennsylvania town, but finds his day upended when a UFO and its extra-terrestrial passenger crash land in his backyard.
