I'm kind of shocked that E.T. has only two paws for a community rating. I guess some of the film snobs out there tend to #!@%*# on this movie and that's fine. I have a soul, however. Just watched it again for the first time in years and it held up incredibly. I cried, I'm not going to lie. The relationship between E.T. and Elliott is wonderful, Drew Barrymore is cute and hilarious, and just the look of the film is magical. I'm not the biggest Spielberg fan in the world and even I can love this one.

Barrymore at her Syrupy Dorky Best
Reviewed by KHL for Never Been Kissed at 2008-06-04 12:59:33
It's hard not to like Drew Barrymore in this, as contrived and silly as the script it. It does remind one of some 80s classics like Pretty in Pink or Breakfast Club. Barrymore remembers her painful past as a dorky outcast high schooler, who can now re-do her past, as a 'cool girl', by posing as a new student at a high school to do an expose journalism story. It's hard to imagine Barrymore, with her elegance, playing 'dorky' but her performance is probably one of her best, I found myself rooting for her in the 'cliff-hanger' type finale.

Cutesy but Sincere
Reviewed by KHL for Music & Lyrics at 2008-06-04 11:56:33
I wasn't sure what to expect, since I don't really like fluffy romantic comedies all that much, but this one delivered. Grant and Barrymore have great chemistry...if you like them, you should see this. Barrymore plays the slightly spacey, but sincere girl who's looking for a self-esteem boost after a bad relationship, next to Hugh Grant's corny but lovable aging rock-star 'has been' of the 80s pop group, called (what else), "Pop!". He discovers her lyrical abilities and they team up to write a big hit for fatuous new teen pop idol (hysterically, yet frighteningly real portrayal here). Kristen Johnson (Third Rock from the Sun) delivers a great role as Barrymore's "Pop!" obsessed older sister. A nice 'feel-good' comedy.
