Spielberg = Popular + big money, but poor film

Rating: 1/10 (21 October 2000)

Again, yes again, our friend Mr Spielberg does it. He takes a subject matter that needs clever acting and clever direction, but rams it home like a 2 hour pop video.
Why do people like these films, THE ACTING WAS AWFUL, the story was boring, the script was something out of a 1950's 'B' movie and people, not just one, but many, are saying that was a great film.
Go and see a movie that is cleverly made, not just a five minute script that, uses every cliché in the book to ram home emotions and depth that aren't there. I suppose this film appeals to the masses that don't have to think about a movie, just accept it as arty as it had couple of drawn out sad scene's, so it must be a masterpiece.
I won't bother to go into the racism in the movie, the Germans played as mindless morons that just walk into bullets and of course, us stumbling Europeans, Australians, Russians, etc that actually fought through the entirety of the war.
0/10 - Awful.
