ET gets old + calls home

OK, it's a brave attempt to adapt a short story about a guy that lives his life backwards ( about as easy as making a credible film of Kafkas "Metamorphosis" )

Filmmaker has risen to the challenge with some great cinematography + some equally great acting; but ultimately comes across as "Disney twee" + way too slick a production ( as well as being W-A-A-Y too long! )

I didn't like this enough to want to see it again + really don't know what all the fuss is about

If the critics are going Ga-Ga over this film, we need new critics
