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

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 24, 2022

A movie that continues to live in infamy.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 7, 2021

Mac and Me ... is pure entertainment.

| Mar 11, 2021

A bad copy of E.T. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Mar 25, 2020

A film that warms your heart with rage, Mac and Me offers a constant stream of soulless corporate synergy. Like a 19th-century mountebank, the film peddles Coca-Cola as a life-saving elixir.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jun 18, 2019

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

Full Review | Apr 30, 2014

Director Stewart Raffill's film is otherwise an unashamed rip-off of Spielberg's classic.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 30, 2014

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.

| May 14, 2013

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

| Original Score: 1/5 | May 14, 2013

Possibly aware that they have something less than a classic on their hands, the makers of MAC and Me have cut their losses by making the film into a kind of cinematic billboard: all space is for sale.

| Original Score: 1/4 | May 14, 2013

Everything about MAC and Me -- not least the fact that it's fairly well-made and involving -- smacks of crass calculation. The filmmakers even have the gall, in the movie's parting shot, to announce a sequel.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 14, 2013

Mac and Me simply is an uninspired, fast-food version of E.T., The Extraterrestrial.

| May 14, 2013

Mac and Me is a 99-minute commercial occasionally interrupted by a not-so-good children`s movie.

| Original Score: 1/4 | May 14, 2013

So-bad-it's-good "E.T." rip-off; lots of product placement.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 20, 2012

In addition to its lack of originality, Mac and Me is also blatantly commercial, selling everything from candy to soft drinks to fast-food restaurants.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 3, 2009

Give the kids a break; take them to something else.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 11, 2005

Watching it's made me a little stupider, buying it would have also dropped me a few social classes.

| Original Score: 0/4 | May 30, 2005

Then there's Mac himself, a puppet which couldn't possibly look more like a puppet (a bad, shoddy puppet at that).

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 14, 2005

E.T. rip-off and commercial placement-packed kid movie
