The only reason I didn't give it a score of "1"...

Rating: 2/10 (3 March 2020)

...was because I tried to take the high road and find some kind of redeeming quality about this bomb. Finally I decided at least it was made in color so it wasn't all bad. But this was literally the last time I remember being forced to sit through a movie this awful and didn't walk out. I won't knock you if you disagree with me on this but in this case the low IMDB rating is deserved. Probably the only reason you don't see more scathing reviews here must be because everybody who hated it has long forgotten about this garbage film.
Why did Spielberg even make it? Perhaps he needed a tax write off that year? Unless, of course, his sense of humor is really as bad as this movie seems to show. But this movie is a grand, sprawling, busy, noisy, giant of a movie and there are always several (very loud) things happening onscreen simultaneously. The action is slapstick without being very funny, and tit is non-stop. The filmmakers spend the entire running time trying to hold your attention, much as if the viewing audience consisted of toddlers getting the plastic keys shaken in their face. At the end of this movie I didn't feel entertained, I felt glad it was over. Nevertheless, the reviews tell me somebody out there enjoys this kind of film; so if you are tempted to give it a watch anyway, be my guest - but you may want to do the smart thing and plot your escape ahead of time, just in case.
