(I really miss his work.) The characters are drawn clearly if not archetypically and draw us unabashedly into the ring of moral discourse which we achingly yet eagerly embrace. If this was Kubrick's work, wel l, it was right on target. If this was Spielburg's homage to Kubrick, well done. It also is very much in the style of Kubrick: sets, lots of master shots, slow moving and ponderous "photography in motion." The ambience is there to serve the story in every detail. The pit is deep, dark, poignantly adorned with characters against a somber stage that compels us to engage the material. We are immediately immersed in a moral conundrum. The first act of the film, which to me feels entirely Kubrickian, is great. This film tries to do both and it just doesn't work. Kubrick is a master at disciplined contemplation of a moral issue while Spielburg is a master at spinning a wonderfully entertaining yarn. Both have a unique style that do not mix well.

I don't know to what extent each actually worked on filming, but it sure does feel like two different directors worked on this movie - which is problem # 1. I've read that Kubrick originally worked on this project before Spielburg picked it up. It tries real hard, but gets confused and lost. Being a fan of both Kubrick and Spielburg, this movie was a surprising miss.
