Cocoon is a warm-hearted science-fiction fable that avoids becoming overly corny thanks to the performances of its mostly senior cast. Wilford Brimley, Don Ameche, and Hume Cronyn are three old-timers who sneak out of their retirement home a few days a week to swim in the large pool on an abandoned estate next door. When the threesome begins to feel curiously younger, they discover strange pods on the floor of the pool. These pods are alien cocoons, which are being pulled from the ocean by a team of extra-terrestrials in human form led by Walter (Brian Dennehy), who has hired a local charter operator (Steve Guttenberg) to assist him. Walter explains to the seniors that energy from the cocoons is restoring youth and vigor to the older men every time they go for a dip. The aliens agree to let the men continue to swim in secret, but of course they can't keep their discovery to themselves. Soon the pool is swarming with retirees, with the notable exception of Bernie (Jack Gilford), who has no interest in prolonging life any longer than necessary. The aliens ultimately prepare to return home and offer the retirees eternal life if they leave Earth behind as well. Director Ron Howard treats his old-timers with care and dignity, and they respond with deeply sympathetic performances (Ameche won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar); the film's science-fiction trappings ably sustain the story's all-too-human ruminations on youth, aging, life, and death.

IMDB

After making a directorial name for himself with Disney's Splash in 1984, Ron Howard came back a year later with this uplifting extraterrestrial/fountain of youth picture. With a very talented (and mostly geriatric) cast that included Hume Cronin, Don Ameche and Wilford Brimley, the film presents a positive outlook on the eternal questions posed by life and death. Cocoon seamlessly combines playful and sorrowful elements as it ponders the puzzling dilemmas of the aged. The supporting cast members, most notably Steve Guttenberg and Brian Denehy, are stronly glued to the spirit of the film. The expansive scope and focus of the film is hammered home by the insightful performances of Cronin, Ameche and Brimley. Although peaceful aliens fell out of vogue in 1990s cinema, Cocoon's E.T.-esque qualities still resonate.

Pearl S. Buck once noted: "I do not believe in a child world. It is a fantasy world. I believe the child should be taught from the very first that the whole world is his world, that adult and child should share one world, that all the generations are needed." Cocoon is a movie for all generations. It is funny, tender, touching science fiction fantasy that compels its audiences to consider the meaning of old age, longevity, other worlds, death, and the vale of grandparenting.

Anareans from a distant planet have returned to earth in human disguise to retrieve some compatriots left behind 10,000 years ago in the underwater city of Atlantis. Walter (Brian Denehey), their leader, hires a boat to bring up some pods from the Gulf of Mexico waters. The cocoons are then placed in a swimming pool of a rented mansion located Near St. Petersburg's Sunny Shores Retirement Community.


Art (Don Ameche), Ben (Wilford Brimley), and Joe (Hume Cronyn), who have been secretly swimming in the pool, suddenly find themselves rejuvenated. Art's girlfriend (Gwen Verdon) and the wives of the other two (Maureen Stapleton and Jessica Tandy) are delighted by the men's new sexual vitality. Even more amazing benefits accrue from repeated dips in the curative waters. Soon word is out in the retirement community. A crisis ensues, and the old timers must help the Antareans. In return, Walter offers them an opportunity of a lifetime.

Ron Howard directs Cocoon with just the right mix of respect for the retirees and wonder about other worlds beyond Earth. He is blessed with a topnotch cast. In addition to the engaging performances by the three couples, there are excellent ones by Jack Gilford as a crusty individualist who refuses to tamper with nature and Barret Oliver as Ben's loving grandson who enacts a heroic deed to liberate his grandfather. Cocoon is one of the most unusual and uplifting films of 1985.
