Still mind blowing till date

Rating: 9/10 (20 February 2018)

The character introduction in this movie brings up Steven Spielberg's own style. He using the method of "action" in showing there is visitor from outer space to earth. It was not shown fully until the character Elliot sees E.T at his behind house. Where else, there are people hunting for E.T ftom the first scene itself and director keeps their face in mystery to the while only showing the "key jangling" with sound.
This type character introduction also can be seen in Spielberg's previous movie, Raider of the Lost Ark which will be in silhouette shots of Professor Indiana Jones while let the audience only focusing on his actions alone in the first 4 minutes of the film before revealing Harrison Ford's face.
