Review of E.T.

E.T. (1982)
7/10
40 years on and still a classic
3 September 2022
I saw this on the big screen as a 40th anniversary showing and it has not lost any of its appeal. The story and the characters are still magic.

A timeless classic that deserves to be remembered as one of best films of the 80s.

Some of the CGI now shows is age but that does not detract from the film.

I think this is one of Steven Spielberg's best films with an amazing show as well as great characters.

Some of the action is very of its time which adds to the film. The BMX action is a time capsule of the 80s and very iconic.

Also things like the mum leaving an infant drew Barrymore on her own while she collects her brother made me laugh, that would never make a film now.
