07.07.05 | DVD | I guess I haven't seen this since its theatrical run, so for some reason I decided to give it another watch. The stuff I remember thinking coolest about the movies, namely all the nifty inventions that sci-fi people were hired and locked in a room together to figure out, are no longer that cool. On the other hand the bullet-hole-riddled plot and stolen scenes and devices aren't as offensive either. I guess all in all the movie is taking steps toward mediocracy just like 90% of all the movies out there. I still like the scene where Peter Stormare talks about his prison rape as he prepares Cruise for eye surgery. well, ok I like peter stormare's character but the nurse assistant is pretty cheesy. The end shot is also still pretty unsatisfying... when the 'directed by' credit pops up it really felt like Spielberg saying "um... ok i guess it's over now." |
