Primarily it's just plain dumb, although it is also a horrendous mess from a technical standpoint. To fit them into a single article almost seems ridiculous.

I could write an entire book on the faults of Mac and Me. Apparently they're not too eager to find their son since they spend the duration of the movie crawling at a snail's pace under the glare of the sun, stopping every now and again to emit sounds similar to that of a drunken elephant, making patterns in the air with their extended index fingers (now, where have I seen that in an alien-oriented movie before?). and is searching for his parents, who were picked up by a NASA space probe and are now out in California doing who-knows-what. The film's protagonist is wheelchair-bound Michael (Jonathan Ward), an adolescent who moves to a new city and finds himself meeting up with a strange puppet err, alien named 'Mac' (I guess?), who waddles around like E.T. knock-off, Pod People, my choice for the worst film of all-time and another 'so-bad-it's-good' gem that is actually so bad it becomes good, then bad again, where it continues in this cycle until it becomes downright petrifying. Well, at least one opinion remains - it is unlike anything I've ever seen before a rip-off so bad beyond words that it's almost as unbelievably awful as another shameless E.T. Or perhaps I'm discrediting myself I wasn't that stupid, but I was naïve enough to believe, at least, that it was a fun movie, and unlike anything I had ever seen before. I considered Mac and Me to be the pinnacle of film-making. When I was younger I didn't notice the numerous references to Mickey D's and Coca-Cola I just marveled at the sight of strange alien beings whistling to music that played only in my head. Watching it now is like a slap in the face. And I ate it all up I used to love this movie.

Mac and Me was a film I frequently watched an embarrassing, agonizing, shameless marketing scheme fueled by McDonalds featuring a plot ripped off of E.T. I'm talking about grade-A quality garbage, here. When I was a child I watched some very bad movies some were so bad, they made Cool as Ice look like the original Rebel Without a Cause.
