• Fantastic Movie
  This is one of the best movies i ever seen. The history is terrific. the best is that it isn't a kind of Hollywood's movie. The actors are great and is very emotive.
  In fact this is by far the best Steven Spielberg movie.
  I do not recommend it for people who loves movies in Hollywood's styles. This is not for you.
  Great Movie!!!! Fantastic!!!

I can understand to an extent, but not seeing the films central glistening facet is to ignore what is right in front of your eyes. Yes, even the vilest of movie critics; even someone who detests everything that is so Hollywood about Steven Spielberg will tell you that Christian Bale delivers quite possibly the finest child acting performance of all time.
  That said; I don't hate this movie.more info
