Directed by Stephen Spielburg in 1982, the movie E.T. was an instant hit. A family-friendly, heartwarming Sci-fi movie in which a young boy, Elliot, and his sister befriend a cute little extra- terrestrial creature who has been left behind after his spaceship pays a short visit to earth. Friendship, family, loyalty, bravery and perseverance are the main themes. A very good movie for this age group but parents should know that there is some use of blasphemy.
