Well Intentioned But Dreary

Rating: 2/10 (15 September 1998)

Did Spielberg phone this one in? With the exception of the opening sequence, the camera just sits there, while the noble characters drone on. Spielberg is the most dynamic modern director. "Amistad" looks like a movie he thought he should make, "Schindler's List" was a movie he really wanted to make & it shows.
