Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Particularly disappointing given the decency of the original, moreover

the original presented some very interesting and relevent ideas about ETs. It has been said that the original film was a socialogical experiment by the military to judge the public reaction to the idea of ETs visiting Earth.

The remake was also particularly disappointing in that it portrayed aliens as evil, belligerent monsters again -- the standard take on them in the movies since Close Encounters. The original portrayed ET as more evolved and non-war mongering as opposed to man.
