his older brother Elliot works on finding a way home for the friend they called
E.T..
This is the first movie I ever saw in a movie theater as a kid. To
be honest, maybe because of that special aspect of it, it keeps a particular place
in my heart. While science-fiction is usually not my thing, this is a sweet and
special film that has aged quite well. Sure, it looks like a product of its
time, but it can still be enjoyed today. The acting was good and the storyline
was very compelling.
After it was all said and done, I had a smile on my face and little
mist at the corner of my eyes. I was touched and moved, I was entertained. And
that is all that matters to me here.
