Plot
An alien is stranded on earth and eventually befriends a young boy during his quest to return to his home planet. Badi is a Turkish remake of Steven Spielberg's E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial.
Sinekatalog’s take
A Turkish take on the stranded-alien-befriends-a-boy story, following the well-known E.T. template closely. Its sincerity and child's-eye wonder are the main draws, while limited resources and familiarity hold it back. A nostalgic family curiosity for those who enjoy local remakes.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
