Disappointment

Rating: 1/10 (10 February 2006)

As his other movies, it's a disappointment. The idea was good, the story was supposedly good, but it's too American. I don't exactly know how to explain it but that's the impression I get. Israel made a nice movie on such a theme, of course without the unnecessary drama we find in American TV or movies.
I saw some people who give good comments are more attached to the history of the occasion in that particular Olympics--which of course is something we sympathise in. But don't forget we're assessing THE MOVIE here.
But then, Spielberg hasn't made a nice one for a while anyway. What long hours of disappointment. I'd prefer Tiny Toons.
