Disclosure Day

Recommended

Extremely dated. Like a movie from the '90s when Spielberg was in his peak, even the soundtrack. Except you're watching this as a sensible adult in the digital age. The acting was atrocious, the plot took too long to develop, all the characters are idiots and everything was just dumb and convenient. The entire plot centers around exposing the existence of aliens to the world.…

I feel like i'm rating this film lower if it wasn't a Steven Spielberg production. For the most part it features his usual polish which is above average in most cases. The camera movement and staging is as good as ever. There's even some car chase sequences thrown in to break up the pacing and give this film a jolt of energy and remind us of how much fun Spielberg's action can be.…

This is ET. If you saw ET in 82 or later when it came out on VHS, DVD, Blu-ray or streaming, then you know how this goes. This does not have the kids though, but replace them with less engaging and a lot less fun people, to make it more believable. It also gives a face to the villain, which is nice, and keeps the alien hidden and in the background for most of the movie.…

**Nonsense plotholes** on a chain!!! Spielberg must have dimentia and the producers are betting on the sure degradation of logic thinking through the pseudo-education system. This is unbelievably bad. **Do not waste money** on it, you will surely regret it after 30 min latest when you ask yourself if another 90 minutes more just adds to the loss. It will. 2h time of your life gone, wasted without reciprocation.

Spielberg still has it. Blunt delivers a career-best turn as a meteorologist whose encounters spiral into a paranoid conspiracy chase that splits the difference between Minority Report and Close Encounters. Williams' score soars, the blocking is gorgeous, and the back half genuinely got me. Loses half a star for a baggy script and a finale that pushes too hard for tears. Still one of his best in years.

I blame Christopher Nolan: this film is far, far, too long. The concept is quite interesting and complex, and the first half hour tees things up intriguingly but thereafter it just disappoints with a surfeit of dialogue and very little menace before delivering a conclusion that for someone who worked in live television for thirty years is implausible bordering on the downright preposterous.…

So.... the disclosure is an information dump and really is nothing. Everyone is an idiot. The special effects are poorly done CGI which is disappointing for Speilberg. It misses all the conspiracy theory beats that Close Encounters had. Everything that the movie should show you, that you want to see comes in the form of an information dump and everything that could have come in an information dump is what you see.…

The filmmaking aspects of Disclosure Day are impressive, and they should be, considering Steven Spielberg’s illustrious career and the people he continues to work with, but the story feels so elongated for no reason, with no real conclusion, and the dialogue and humor are so awful when there is so much of each. https://bit.ly/DiscDay

**A Movie Made by Dinosaurs, for the Dinosaurs** I wanted to like Disclosure Day. The premise—a government agent racing to expose classified alien contact—should be tense, urgent, relevant. Instead, what we get is a film so divorced from how the actual world works that it feels like it was written by people who've been in a bunker since 1987.…

If this film was released in 1979-85 I probably would have loved it. Now that I'm 61 instead of 14, I see the world much differently. I really wanted to like this, since CE3k is one of my all-time favorite movies and Spielberg has never let me down so far. The production was terrible. JJ Abrams style lens flares all over the place that were nothing but distracting. The CG animals looked fake.…

Director Steven Spielberg’s filmography is legendary, to say the least. Movies like “Jaws” (1975), “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” (1977), “Raiders of the Lost Ark” (1981), “E.T.: The Extraterrestrial” (1982), “Schindler’s List” (1993) and “Jurassic Park” (1993) have gone down as classics in the annals of filmmaking.…
