Make Your Voice Heard!

A new version of E.T, The Extra Terrestrial will be hitting theatres in a few weeks, with new scenes and better sound.

I saw E.T. twenty years ago and it left me with a lasting impression. A boy name Elliott befriended an alien named E.T. after he was abandoned.

I saw this film two times and both times I was moved by the whole film. I never forgot the scenes where ET was walking in the woods, looking up at these big trees, how he befriended a family which include a young Drew Barrymore, and how he almost died and was resurrected.

Anybody can sit though a movie watching with their eyes. Not ET! You need both your eyes and your heart to see a movie like ET. I urge everyone who had never saw ET to see it for the first time and experience what I and the rest had experienced 20 years ago. Those who saw it 20 years ago to see it again. Beleive me you will cry and you will cheer.

One of Steven Spieldberg's great films, ET is a must see.

I too saw this 20 years ago and loved it.

It has that fun/whimsical/serious sort of feel that most of Speilbergs early, and best, movies had. They don't seem to now because he has matured as a director and film maker.

It's a favorite on video of my 3 boys and I shall be taking them to the movies to watch the re-vamped version on the big screen.

8/10

One of Spielbergs best. The changes didn't bother me much. May all of us never grow up.

This is a classic movie that everyone should watch at some point, but don't expect an upbeat sci-fi with an alien. This film is slow paced and somewhat sad, so don't watch this unless you feel like being slightly depressed during parts of the movie.
