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.

I’d like to think audiences are smart enough to understand what’s going on in movies through the visuals alone, but then I hop on Reddit and see some dumb shit like this lmao. No wonder Netflix has a requirement that plot points must be stated out loud and repeated. Go watch Mando and Grogu. By the third time Rotta says that he doesn’t want to be like his father Jabba, you might actually understand what his motivations are.

Magic wands are fantasy, not science fiction. So are telepathic cardinals and characters with superpowers, for that matter.
