The most interesting thing about watching a Spielberg movie is seeing how he reveals his romantic feelings in the first few minutes. This movie is about the 80th minute, which is the latest in history, and from this point of view, the whole The movie is very unspielberg, you can't imagine he did "Jurassic Park 2" half a year ago and "Saving Private Ryan" half a year later.

At this time, even if the movie is "good-looking" and the golden sentence is frequently published, it will make people feel that there is a fly in the ointment.
