The Terminal ** Tom Hanks acts really well and the concept is also great. But I think I am biased against Spielberg - He makes these super formulaic commercial movies that are creative but don't touch me on any level
Another disapponting Spielberg's movie. Even the excellent performance of Hanks isn't enough to save it. Coupled with the insignificant if not irritating War of the worlds and the nothing more than decent Catch me if you can, Minority Report and A.I., it marks a worrying decline of inspiration and geniality and a patent demand for cash.
I still have to watch Munich though. I hope, I do hope!, it will cheer me up. Otherwise I'll stick to Schindler's list , Saving Private Ryan , Amistad, Empire of the Sun , The Color Purple , ET and Jaws when I need to think about Spielberg's movies.
I don't want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don't tell the truth. I tell what ought to be truth (Blanche/A streetcar named desire)
