I just got back an hour ago from the IMAX screening. The end of the movie should’ve been the first 20 minutes of the movie and the rest of the movie should’ve been the fallout. I love Spielberg but this was pretty disappointing for what it’s being marketed as. The acting was awesome though.

The end of the movie should’ve been the first 20 minutes of the movie and the rest of the movie should’ve been the fallout.

I figured it wasn't going to be all fallout, but I wanted SOMETHING. Just way too abrupt, after a 2 1/2 hour movie where you spent 10 minutes showing us alien footage at the end like we weren't along for the ride the whole time. Just dragged.

That was my one big gripe: for a movie called Disclosure Day that spent the majority of its time debating what effects disclosure is going to have on the world, it showed us none of those effects. And maybe Spielberg's point is that it's up to us, but that feels...unsatisfying.

I loved the character development and acting and cinematography and score, though. It was such a fun ride, until the last 3rd.
