Product Description:
A group of earth children help a stranded alien botanist return home.Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca)Release Date: 08/23/2005Starring: Henry Thomas Robert MacnaughtonRun time: 121 minutesRating: PgDirector: Steven Spielberg
Amazon.com essential video:
Steven Spielberg's 1982 hit about a stranded alien and his loving relationship with a fatherless boy (Henry Thomas) struck a chord with audiences everywhere, and it furthered Spielberg's reputation as a director of equally strong commercial sensibilities and classical leanings. Henry Thomas gives a strong, emotional performance as E.T.'s young friend, Robert MacNaughton and Drew Barrymore make a solid impression as his siblings, and Dee Wallace is lively as the kids' mother. The special effects almost look a bit quaint now with all the computer advancements that have occurred since, but they also have more heart behind them than a lot of what we see today. --Tom Keogh

E.T. is one of the best family movies I've ever seen that ALSO has a bit of a scary horror vibe.You know, when aliens supposedly make a crash landing in a farmers barn in the middle of the night, and the farmer hears this and runs outside slowly with a shotgun ready to unload.That sort of happens here, except, instead of an insane farmer, it's a little boy with an older brother and younger sister.

Rating: - ET-The Extra-terrestrial
This is one of the all time great movies for young and old. Speilberg touches on every human emotion in this film. Should have beat Ghandi, hands down, for Best Picture Oscar that year. It still amazes me that it didn't win because of Hollywood politics. It's the most delightful movie. Make you laugh through your tears.

My children thoroughly enjoyed this movie when it was first released in the local movie houses many years ago. Now their children are enjoying it on the tv screen in the home of Nana & Poppa.It is played over and over. A classic that is enjoyed by all generations. No one will be sorry if they purchase this item.
