E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial

Come on let's face it. Steven Spielberg is the man!. He could have done some wrong movie choices in the last years but his achievements in the past made him the man he is today. An extraordinary story-teller, and E.T. is the proof of that. In 1982 nobody knew that this simple movie would be a touching and a turning point for a man and for the 7thArt. Spielberg already successufully commissioned productions like Jaws(1975) and Raiders Of The Lost Ark(1981) with great reviews and the suprise of audience.

The plot of the movie is simple: A UFO and its crew have landed on Earth by mistake. The aliens are discovered by a patrol of scientists and they quickly flew from our planet leaving behind one of the passengers. The small creature then hides it self in a nearby garden of a suburban home. One night he is discovered by a small children and together they will form a connection like no other. Their friendship grows with time and later the brothers of the child are let in on the secret, but must continue to hide him from adults. One day e.t. became sick and the child also became sick. Later on the film the mother of the kids and the scientist discover this encounter with the alien and put the child and the e.t. on a quarantine tent. What they don't know is why they are both sick...

This fantastic emotional, adventure, family, imagination movie is a wonderful gift for kids and adults. I remember seeing the movie when i was a kid and a lot later after the release of the movie and i loved. It's a feeling that only kids know. To experience this cinematic masterpiece of Mr. Steven Spielberg is the destruction of the imaginative power for adults and the creation of a childs own world.

In resume it's an amazing, extraordinary movie which Spielberg commands wonderfully, full of emotional and touching strings, directing the audience to find out their own feelings. A fine piece of Work for the 7th art. Don't miss this. Enjoy it !
