Midnight Special

Been a while since I've posted about a movie.  But lets get back to it with this clever indy-ish scifi flick.  Got bits of E.T. and Starman and various other help special alien/individual/witch evade government goons and get home.  In this case we've got an 8-year old boy with strange powers who had been raised by a generic Texas cult/commune called the Ranch.  Who's on a road trip to freedom with his dad, played by Michael Shannon.  Plus Adam Driver as an NSA analyst trying to work out whats going on.  And midway Kirsten Dunst as Solar Boy's mom...
