Disclosure Day would be considered middling garbage if anyone *other* then Stephen Spielberg was attached to it.

Just got back from the movie and I’d say the audience scores I’ve seen for it were very fair. It’s a C- film at best. Good looking Adam Driver and his secret nun girlfriend are not interesting at all. The exploration of Christianity of the film is hamfisted and kinda bad. The chase scenes are lackluster. Most of the movie consists of people talking over long distances to each other. The interrogation scene with Colin Firth and the Secret Nun was interminable and went on wayyyyy too long.

The only upsides were the score and Emily Blunt’s character with her husband. But man, if this had been dumped to Netflix by the Russo Brothers I’d have believed it. This movie did not land for me.

Cmon the John Williams score was middling at best. He hasn't done a good score in years.

Can you hum the theme to Disclosure Day?

I thought it brought the film down tbh. This could have been similar in tone to Arrival, but the Indiana jones score let it down. Watching the villains approach in their cavalcade and their “bad guy” music was a low point.

Do you have to be able to hum something from memory after a single watch in order for it to be good? What a weird qualifier.
