Oh man, as bad as A.I.? That's one of my all-time most despised movies. Spielbergo seems to get the high-concept part right, then dumbs it down and ruins it with his sentimental BS endings. Gawd how I hated that movie. And he ruined Minority Report, too, with that awful ending where Cruise has to spell out the entire movie we just watched to the bad guy, who apparently didn't know what was going on. Maybe he was in a different movie?
Sad to hear about WotW. I will see it soon, but I can smell the stench of another high concept failure from here.
Yes, as bad as A.I. The entire picture is really dumbed down, focusing more on the effects than story. You hit the nail on the head about the sappy ending, and he used narration to sum up the ending! The more I think about it, the more I hate it.
