Director Jeff Nichols (Take Shelter, Mud) is on top form here, channelling the likes of Spielberg and Carpenter to craft a classic sci-fi chase film focusing on a young boy (Jaeden Lieberher) who - as the tagline suggests - is not like us. Rumours of his powers have spread far enough that religious fanatics and the US government are willing to go to extreme lengths to get their hands on him. Standing in their way are the boy's increasingly desperate father (Michael Shannon) and his state trooper accomplice (Joel Edgerton).
