Critics Consensus

Mac and Me is duly infamous: not only is it a pale imitation of E.T., it's also a thinly-veiled feature length commercial for McDonalds and Coca-Cola.

A blatant commercial for McDonald's and Coca-Cola disguised as an E.T. rip-off.

It's an amazingly bald-faced copy of E. T. even though this is E. T. in a sticky wrapper, left under the heater two hours too long.

1/5

A mercenary display of product placement and a bad advertisment for filmmaking.

Mac and Me is the type of film that is so bad that it's good.

Sweet and heartfelt, Mac and Me is exciting and beautifully animated. An adventure film enjoyable for all ages, and it puts Spielberg's ET to shame.
