Nothing more than a poor "E.T." rip-off which was made six years too late. The acting, directing, writing and special effects are all pretty horrible. Plus, it basically does nothing but promote product placements for Coca-Cola, McDonald's and Skittles. Yet, everything about it is unintentionally funny. Everything ranges from the wheelchair kid falling out of a cliff and plunges into the water to ... read more

No hay palabras para describir esta obscenidad que se atreven a llamarla "entretenimiento", porque es más que un plagio feo y horrible de E.T.
La historia va de unos aliens que viven en un planeta árido y se alimentan de los nutrientes del subsuelo de este con (atención) pajitas, sí, habéis leído bien: La clavan en el suelo y empiezan a beber.... y cuando ya pensaba que no puede haber ... read more

Warning: Spoilers 1. 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. 2. 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. 3.

The Top Twenty-Four Ways Mac & Me is Cheesy

“Warning: Spoilers

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. No, no, McDonald's. The line "Why don't you stop by for a Big Mac?" was completely subtle.

4. As were: "You know what I feel like?" – "A Big Mac?"

5. Nice touch on the Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter overtones in the scoredespite being a kid's movie.

6. Jennifer Anniston's acting debut was Mac and Me. Later, she starred in Marley & Me. Is Murderi” read more

“No hay palabras para describir esta obscenidad que se atreven a llamarla "entretenimiento", porque es más que un plagio feo y horrible de E.T.

La historia va de unos aliens que viven en un planeta árido y se alimentan de los nutrientes del subsuelo de este con (atención) pajitas, sí, habéis leído bien: La clavan en el suelo y empiezan a beber.... y cuando ya pensaba que no puede haber nada que haga que está película vaya más para abajo, me equivocaba.

Aparece una sonda humana que aterriza en el planeta de estos bichos para recoger materiales para analizar, entonces, como los aliens tienen poderes sacads de la nada con la tecnología, la estropean al tocarlo y un tubo absorbe a los que estaban cerca (todo siendo super realista y coherente).
