Disclosure Day REVIEW - Is This a Joke?

[00:00:00]Hello ladies and gents. I've watched Disclosure Day and it was not very good.

[00:00:05]It was actually quite bad. Um would not recommend you go go and watch it. Uh it is genuinely as if Steven Spielberg has forgotten how to make a movie. I'm not overly sure.

[00:00:19]I'm not overly sure what the deal was with that to be honest. It was um yeah bad bad. Uh and David Cop as well generally quite a good writer. Uh not very good on this. Very very bad. Very very very bad. Uh it's quite incoherent in terms of tone tonally incoherent.

[00:00:43]Its pacing is is awful.

[00:00:46]Uh at a certain point it becomes boring.

[00:00:50]There are objective well subjective objective things which you know your mileage may vary. Uh but I thought the acting actually was very good. I mean Emily Blunt did put in a good performance.

[00:01:07]Doesn't have a lot to do with what she's able she doesn't have a lot to work with. Right. The material she's working with isn't great but she puts in a great performance. Colin Furf is in this. Not that you'd recognize him because he's well, I don't know. He's not that you'd recognize him really getting on a bit and look like he packed on some pounds.

[00:01:32]Um, and a full-blown beard and stuff, but he actually does a really good performance in this. And he he probably has the most material to work with, and that's being super generous.

[00:01:47]Uh, common Domingo is pretty typ cast to be honest. I think as his sort of this I don't know this I don't know. He's typ cast basically as a sort of side character piece at the moment. Anyway, what's the story? Well, the story is a chap played by Josh O' Connor has uh stolen a whole bunch of documents from a company called Ward decks.

[00:02:20]They are documentation to do with extraterrestrials.

[00:02:25]Uh they call them UAPs now, don't they?

[00:02:28]I think UFOs, whatever.

[00:02:31]Uh, also actual interrogation videos with the grays, all this kind of stuff.

[00:02:38]So, he's stolen all of that. Stolen it because obviously belongs to the world.

[00:02:44]He wants to do a disclosure day. He's working with Coleman Domingo, uh, who apparently is also working with someone else, which if you've seen it, you'll know what I mean. I'm not going to get into that too much. Anyway, Emily Blunt's character is also thrown into the mix when she can suddenly just wake up and start doing stuff like reading people's minds and speaking alien language. Uh anyway, it's a bit of a cat and mouse game with Emily Blunt trying to find Josh's character and then Colin FTH's character trying to find both of them.

[00:03:27]and then culminates in disclosure day and the ramifications of that. Can we handle it as a species? Oh, who knows?

[00:03:36]Uh, at certain points, this feels like a comedy, but it isn't.

[00:03:43]So, not to be like major spoilers again, not that I would encourage anyone to watch this cuz it is actually [ __ ] but Emily Blunt at one point uses an alien tool, a device to hide about 50 people, cars, buildings, fire engines, everything. Right. And so they're there, you just can't see them.

[00:04:16]And so when Colin FTH and his merry band of army cadetses, they're not army cadets, but when they run in and they start walking into things, it looks more like a comedy than it does a thriller.

[00:04:32]And like them walking into things is one thing, but having im like invisible people pick pick them up to move them out the way and they're all like what the [ __ ] were you thinking?

[00:04:50]Like what were you thinking? Why? How did this get past the dailies? How did it get past the script writing material?

[00:04:59]How did it get edited into the final edit, the final cut, and then approved?

[00:05:05]The music is also really lacking, which you know what is incredible because it's by John Williams, but genuinely the music, at one point I was listening and and good music typically enhances things. You don't typically know it, but it's enhancing things. Bad music is either really obstructive, right? or you don't notice it, but then you know something's missing and then you pinpoint that actually the music is terrible. Right?

[00:05:32]There's sort of that. Anyway, I pinpointed the music. I was like, "This is this is boring. What's going on with the music? Why is it so lackluster? The music was impotent. This was the most impotent John Williams score I've heard for some time."

[00:05:48]Um, yeah. It's It's really not what you know what to compare it to anything. It's like a really [ __ ] episode of the X Files. And I love the X Files, but this is like a terrible one.

[00:06:04]Like an actually terrible one.

[00:06:07]There's so much more that you could have done with this material, this idea.

[00:06:12]Uh, and they didn't.

[00:06:16]They sort of just scratched the tip of the iceberg and then nothing else.

[00:06:22]And it's it it's bad. It's not a great movie. The pacing is genuinely atrocious.

[00:06:28]Uh I wanted to fall asleep at certain points. I had a terrible night's sleep last night um cuz I I drilled into a part of my body and it's very painful.

[00:06:36]Anyway, not to get too too much into that. Um but I just wanted to fall asleep. It it it was really boring. like genuinely dull. And again, everyone does a good performance with what they've got to work with, which isn't much. The material is surface level. It's quite shallow, right? It It's superficial stuff. Um I I don't I don't think this is going to I think this is going to bomb. I don't think this is going to do very well cuz I can't see people actually enjoying this that much. It's genuinely not very good.

[00:07:16]So, there you go. Uh, if you've seen it, what did you guys think? Let me know down below in the comment section if you liked it. Let me know why. If you didn't, let me know why.
