Why even bother....

Rating: 4/10 (22 June 2018)

Oh, how I had such high hopes for this movie!! What a disappointment.
Full disclosure, I am a huge fan of the book, I didn't hate that it was (soooooooooooo) different from the book, in fact, that race scene, at first I rolled my eyes when I realized that that was the first challenge, but ended up really liking all that action, so it being different wasn't the problem.
I hated it because it was just scenes - nothing felt organic, nothing evolved naturally, this is supposed to be an adventure, but it was just page one... page two.. say this... stand here... ok, moving on.
Stuff just happened without any emotion... it was such a throw away from something that could've been awesome. Also, too much lens flare.
Positives: The stacks.
Negatives: The movie.
What a load...
I gave it a four because I love Spielberg and I said "Oh" out loud twice... if not for those two things, I would've gotten the 1 that it deserved.
