Summary: DREW IS UTTERLY ADORABLE.
Review: This film has always been quite famous and i can understand why.Famous actors such as drew barrymore that played gertie and Director Steven spielberg a director of quite a lot of films. It is bought to life by a cute little alien E.T, 2 kids who befriended it and took him in to their home to keep. Little gertie is the last to find outabout him and literally screams at first. I think this film would be quite boring for some maybe because of the actors but i loved it.

Summary: Child-Like View of Dangerous Aliens
Review: This childish view of alien relations not only denounces science as the faith of mankind, but it makes the alien creature a martyr symbol, impervious to the inklings of failure that most men have to endure. Almost as bad as the NBC sit-com drama "ALF", which attempted to make fun of a furry stuffed rodent from some other planet. If you find this repulsive, then may I suggest that the alien was probably carrying some type of disease with him and the director makes it seem like its a great thing to have a dirty creature from the Planet zero in your house. All around boredom and yawn sequences are found throughout. Only see this for the special effects which are worn and outdated.

Summary: A Collector's Set to End all Collector's Sets
Review: I received this box set as a Christmas present a few years ago and until recently never opened it. I have the other standard DVD so I didn't see the need to peek at this one. Wow! Three discs. One features the 2002 remastering, disc two the 1982 version (Just a tad more violent) and disc 3 has all the behind the scenes goodies. There's the soundtrack album CD and a wonderful book included in this set. It was scheduled to go out of print two years ago. If you can get one do so. It is well worth the money. It is the ultimate on E.T. Everything you ever wanted to read, see, or hear about E.T. is in this box set.
