Review of Empire of the Sun (1987) by Mario H — 15 Jul 2011
Majorly depressing, and largely pointless. Way too long for the simple storyline. Boring in many aspects. Characters show little to no growth aside from Jim, but I guess that was the point. A boy's journey into manhood(?) through trial and tribulation. The acting almost saves it, but not quite. Eh, I could have done without it. Probably the Spielberg movie I've enjoyed the least so far.
