Watch E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial For Free

Good movie but grossly overrated

Admirable film.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

This is a classic movie. Watched this movie in 2018 with children. They love it, and so do I.

I like that they did their best to accomidate ET. they sure did...they were almost carboshed though. but they got all up in harm's way, and then it was a breeze through the park. literally flying like a breeze through the park. They nicked it all in the bud though. so good movie.

Movie Review: "E.T.-the Extra-Terrestrial" (1982)Recognized with 9-Academy-Award-nominations including "Best Picture" and "Best Director" as U.S. audiences falling love with an amazingly-freakish "Alien" from an unknown galaxy, which is stranded on "Planet Earth" by being late for a spaceship ride, then making friends with group of teenagers in patriotic environment summer school-out California as director Steven Spielberg shows all his skill-making trademarks as a director at age 35 by building suspense, tear-draining emotions, also-thanks to a deeply connecting original script by Melissa Mathison (1950-2015) for the whole family as elementary school boy Elliott, played by match-making casting effort Henry Thomas, at age 10, gets perfectly prepared by director Spielberg in interacting with adults as single Mom Mary, given face by highly-identifiable character performing actress Dee Wallace, when one summer night in steaming as atmospheric shot backyard exteriors Elliott finds "The Extra-Terrestrial"; together they undertake a journey of a boy child's life-time, learning ways of the different, the weird, misfits and freaking social imposters within a microcosm of a Californian small town. Producer Kathleen Kennedy keeps a tight budget of almost low-budget proportions as director Steven Spielberg manages beautifully within the restrictions to let "E.T." become a major hit for the director's Homebase studio Universal Pictures in summer of 1982, defying each and ever picture in terms of emotional content as a mutual family motion picture experience that extraordinary movie summer of 1982, including moviegoers competing pictures as "Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan", "The Thing", "Conan, The Barbarian" and late arriving "Blade Runner", at a time of U.S. social hardship all through the states by changing Presidential administration from "Jimmy Carter" to powering "Ronald Reagan" (1911-2004); a motion picture attendance as revenue sensation of 1980s making the above-the-line filmmakers world-famous and rich in favor for future production values, when director Steven Spielberg, jet-lacked by so much success in just three years between 1980-1983, when he took brakes by choosing a sure winner with his first ever directed sequel/prequel to a previous motion picture success with "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" produced by long-time friend and fellow "New Hollywood" ruling filmmakers George Lucas, Frank Marshall alongside Kathleen Kennedy, who provides the ultimate director in their midst with calm on-set reception every the step of any future filmmaking way.

This is a movie that I watched so that I know what happens in it. It was quite a demanding task. There are really no ideas in the movie. It is the most basic kind of story; a creature arrives, becomes a friend with a child, then there are some difficulties to overcome and finally the creature has to leave and everyone is sad.The only thing that brings joy in the boring task of watching this is the performance of the then 6 years old Drew Barrymore. She was a very talented actress already as a child. But knowing how fame at early age ruined her life, it is not all joy either.So, now I know what happens in E.T. and I will not watch it again. For someone who likes childish stories and doesn't mind their predictable nature, this may be an entertaining film.
