An absolute waste of money

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

A space fantasy that has emotions, friendship and love at its core. A space creature E.T. turns out to be left accidentally on Earth. Luckily, E.T. finds friend in Elliot who takes good care of him during his stay. The movie has few comical scenes that bring innocent smile on our faces.
The cute element was Drew Barrymore as Gertie- a cute little girl she plays in it. What love and care can do is above what the chemicals and modern equipment can do is well evident. The pure love is central is one's existence.
A good entertainer that makes you emotional as few instances. A good watch.

A film that singularly sums up a child's spirit, the dichotomy of youth and adulthood for what lies in possibility and optimism. E.T. has a scintillating musical score and Spielberg's directing powers are in full bloom. Captivating and magical. Spielberg's response to the "stalled space program".

This is a truly touching film and proof that sci fi can have as much, if not more, heart than any drama in the film world.E.T. wants to phone home. He is lost and afraid in his new world, our world. He is short, wrinkly, bug-eyed, yet somehow adorable, and easily befriends his human friend Elliot who cares about him and wants him to survive on Earth.This beautiful story has a lot of depth to it. Elliot and E.T.'s friendship is a model for many successful relationships we desire and strive for. We all want a companion, and E.T. being an alien somehow makes us want to strive for better relationships on Earth.The terrifying sequence involving the scientists at the end doesn't paint the most positive picture of scientific progress, and ironically makes science itself seem somewhat "evil" in a science fiction film. Poor little E.T. must run for his life from the scientists who want to do who knows what with him.This classic sci fi story is one of Spielberg's best, and a must see for all ages, even those not initially attracted to the sci fi genre.

Without a doubt, one of, if not the best, universal transfers yet. Absolutely gorgeous picture with a lovely, steady fine grain and beautiful color timing. They got everything right on this release. I would put this right next to Close Encounters of the Third Kind. As well as Jaws, which was also overseen by Mr. Spielberg.
