In addition, Michael's line "He's gone?" is poorly dubbed in over his original line "He's dead?" if you listen carefully, you can hear both clips of "He's dead" and "He's gone" play at the same time. The new ending was shot incompetently Eric's unconscious (dead) body was added as a cutout, which clashes horribly with the film.In that ending, a cop accidentally shot Eric dead, which makes more sense than having him killed by the explosion, but is far more disturbing. The originally-filmed ending was even worse.(even if they do switch things up a bit by having the young boy as the one who seemingly dies, instead of the alien). What's more, this somehow kills Eric despite him being nowhere in the building, leading to MAC and his family bringing him back from the dead, in another story element blatantly ripped off from E.T. Ridiculous ending, where a stray bullet from the cops hits a petrol pump near a supermarket and somehow causes the whole supermarket to blow up.Janet (Eric's mother) is an unlikable character, as she frequently blames Eric for anything bad happening around the house, even though he's wheelchair-bound.Poorly attempted humor, which is nothing but fart jokes and couch gags.Incredibly wooden acting from the human characters.There's also product placement for Skittles, Coca-Cola, and Sears. In fact, the name "MAC" could be a reference to the Mcdonald's signature sandwich, the Big Mac. There's even a five-minute dance sequence inside a McDonald's restaurant complete with a cameo of Ronald McDonald starring as himself. The film is infamous for its huge product placement for McDonald's.
The aliens' costumes look absolutely hideous.
When Eric falls into the water in one scene, you can obviously tell it's a green screening when MAC pops up from the foreground. the Extra-Terrestrial, even ripping off the working title for E.T., " E.T.
