Overrated,yes,but still a great family/tearjerker and one of Steven Spielbergs best

Rating: 10/10 (13 June 2010)

I think that ET The Extra Terrestrial is overrated but its still a great family film and a tearjerker at the same time and its one of the genius directors Steven Spielbergs best.
Its about a boy called Elliot discovering an alien in his backyard and he takes him in and hides him in his bedroom and the alien cant talk so Elliot tries to teach him,then he eventually learns and keeps saying "PHONE HOME!" so Elliot tries to come up with a way to bring him home ,not knowing that it would become the biggest adventure of his life.
