Kind of fun, but I never understood what the hoopla was about. A routine suburban drama, with an E. T. thrown in for interest. One terrific scene, where E. T. gets drunk and Elliot does too at school.

| Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
A 10-year-old boy (Thomas) befriends a creature from another planet that's been stranded on Earth. A warm, insightful story of childhood innocence, frustration, courage, and love... with a remarkable ``performance'' by E. T. An exhilarating experience for young and old alike. Screenplay by Melissa Mathison. John Williams won an Oscar for his soaring score, as did the sound and visual effects teams. Trivia note: Debra Winger contributed to E. T. 's voice.
