Rashid Irani's review of "Super 8"

Rashid Irani's review of Super 8 in Hindustan Times: 

Throughout, the focus is on ordinary people attempting to cope with extraordinary situations as best they can. Needless to emphasize, innocence and optimism eventually prevail.

Joel Courtney as the motherless child and Elle Fanning as the star of the zombie film the youngsters are surreptitiously shooting deliver commanding performances. As their movie-geek friend, Riley Griffiths is also impressive.
