I could go on and on about what I loved, but I was lucky enough to see the movie knowing almost nothing, and I strongly recommend you do the same. Stop watching the trailers. The one thing I will say: Emily Blunt is incredible. I know big summer movies aren\u2019t usually the kinds of performances that get awards-season attention, but once people see what she does in this\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>Slashfilm\u2019<\/em>s Bill Bria: \u201c<em>Disclosure Day<\/em> is the weirdest movie Spielberg\u2019s ever made (complimentary). Breathtaking compositions, David Koepp\u2019s X-FILES-meets-The Bible script is one big high-wire act, Emily Blunt\u2019s most accomplished performance, John Williams\u2019 best score in years. Riveting, moving stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>IndieWire\u2019<\/em>s Jim Hemphill: \u201c<em>Disclosure Day<\/em> is top tier Spielberg, as exhilarating as <em>Raiders<\/em> but with the emotional texture &amp; increased ambition of his post-9\/11 work. Right from the opening Spielberg lays down the gauntlet and reminds you that he does this stuff better than anybody in the history of film.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tGizmodo\u2019s Germain Lussier: \u201cI loved <em>Disclosure Day<\/em>. A dense roller coaster ride blending chase film, love story, &amp; mystery, all wrapped in sci-fi wonder. It\u2019s Spielberg\u2019s best film in 20 years, filled w\/ all the magic that makes his films so special, plus an all-time character\/performance by Emily Blunt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=713\">Amazon Launching AI Creators Fund, Picks Up Three Animated Prime Video Shows That Use Its New Tech<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tFreelance critic Tessa Smith: \u201c<em>Disclosure Day<\/em> is ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL! Truly something special. I was hanging onto every word, captivated by the story as it all played out. The score perfectly elevates every single scene. Part mystery, part <em>Twilight Zone<\/em>, something new entirely. I shed a tear at the end. WOW.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\n<em>Disclosure Day<\/em>\u00a0marks Spielberg\u2019s first new movie since 2022\u2019s\u00a0<em>The Fabelmans<\/em>\u00a0and also stars Colman Domingo, Colin Firth,\u00a0Wyatt Russell\u00a0and Eve Hewson.<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>Disclosure Day<\/em>\u00a0represents Spielberg\u2019s return to the UFO genre, and fans have speculated that it could be a closet sequel to 1977\u2019s\u00a0<em>Close Encounters of the Third Kind<\/em>. Blunt told\u00a0<em>Empire<\/em>\u00a0magazine, \u201cThere are definitely questions posed by\u00a0<em>Close Encounters<\/em>\u00a0that are answered in\u00a0<em>Disclosure Day<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhen appearing at the South by Southwest Film &amp; TV festival last month,\u00a0Spielberg said about UFOs, \u201cI don\u2019t know any more than any of you do, but I have a very strong suspicion that we are not alone here on Earth right now \u2014 and I made a movie about that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>Disclosure Day<\/em> will likely benefit from the real-life so-called disclosure movement, which has seen the Pentagon release previously classified (and largely frustrating) reports and videos regarding anomalous aerial activity. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe film\u2019s final trailer is below, with Universal taking the unusual step of having Spielberg himself narrate the trailer, discussing his personal belief that we are not alone.
