And how they missed the straws the aliens used for mud slurping should get at least one of them fired.Ģ1. Traveling billions of miles for a three-minute rock collecting experiment might sound like a waste of NASA's talent and money.Ģ0. I'm probably taking the lines "I sucked him up and then we blew him" way out of context.ġ9. Like Discount Drew Barrymore, Discount Dee Wallace, Discount Henry Thomas .ġ8.

There were more discounts in this movie than on McDonald's value menu. "How long have you been in lingerie?" might not be the best question to ask the most blatantly obvious sex offender working at Sears.ġ7. Oh, and try not to be in tears from laughter after that chase scene's over.ġ6.

Sometimes Mac can fly and sometimes he can control electrical objects, but when running from the suits, Mac chooses to ride on Eric's lap down another hill in his speeding wheelchair. Everyone was having a blast and I want my next birthday party there, too!ġ3. I waited the whole movie for the dance party inside and out of McDonald's and it was so worth it.

Code name: "One Hundred X-Ray?" Really?ġ2. Ironically, it does take a lot of coke to enjoy a feature like this.ġ1.


I haven't laughed that hard since wheelchair-bound Eric plunged 50 feet into the water.ġ0. Mac gets stuck in a tree, dogs threaten to rip him apart and they cue the heart-felt music. I usually try to avoid spoiling movies, but E.T.

It shouldn't have taken two times for Mac to be sucked hard for us to get the hint the writers were trying to tell us something.Ĩ. Jennifer Anniston's acting debut was Mac and Me. Nice touch on the Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter overtones in the score despite being a kid's movie.Ħ. As were: "You know what I feel like?" – "A Big Mac?"ĥ. The line "Why don't you stop by for a Big Mac?" was completely subtle.Ĥ. If the Special Olympics were as hilarious as when wheelchair-bound Eric rolled uncontrollably down a hill, off a cliff and into a body of water, I'd be someone's sponsor just so I can see it for myself in person.ģ. The drinking game I played for every product placement I saw in Mac and Me was over within 20 minutes when I nearly died of alcohol poisoning.Ģ. Reviewed by thesar-2 1 / 10 The Top Twenty-Four Ways Mac & Me is Cheesyġ. Again, what in the world were they thinking? I give this a 10 for being so amazingly blatant. I will give them a hug and kiss for throwing said boy off a cliff. I will also give the production credit for casting a real boy in a wheelchair in the lead.

I will say that I like the alien designs better than the horrifically ugly E.T., even if these aliens do look like Imogene Coca in NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION. Seriously, one could start a Coca-Cola drinking game with this but I fear people participating might have their teeth rot out by the end of the 90 minutes. I counted 15 moments where characters offer up a Coke (Skittles and McDonalds get off light compared to that). I haven't seen this much Coke on screen since BLOW (ah, boo yourself!). The level of product placement is astounding. And not only that, it rips off a major moment from STARMAN, right down to the aliens walking through fire. But with its new cult standing, I had to finally check it out and it definitely deserves its standing. Naturally, I didn't see it (like the majority of the world). I was 13 the summer that MAC AND ME came out and even then I could sense how calculated and commercial it was. Give the kids a break take them to something else.Reviewed by udar55 10 / 10 E.T.

Mind-blowingly, the last item on the shopping list of hard sells is America itself: the alien no longer wants to go home, he's found a better life in LA. Directed by Raffill with no hint of wit, personality or invention, the film soon degenerates into a litany of product placements: every frame is littered with Coke cans, and the invitation to interpret 'Mac' as 'Mysterious Alien Creature' is unlikely to fool anyone even before the song-and-dance number that pops up in a well-known junk-food chain. Unless you missed E.T., you know the story: an alien, separated from its family and hunted by nameless agents, hides in suburban California, befriends a boy, and is saved by the neighbourhood kids. Unfortunately, there's little else to commend. First the good news: Jade Calegory, who plays the boy-hero in this cuddly alien yarn, was born with spina bifida, and the film is neither sentimental nor exploitative in dealing with its wheelchair-confined star.
