probably will get downvoted for this but i saw it last night and thought it was a really solid blockbuster type movie, came home and saw that everyone is saying it is a disappointment on here as well as youtubers like critikal. however people seem to be enjoying it a bit better on places like letterboxd and rotten tomatoes, so i was just curious what parts of the movie really left you empty? i haven't seen any of spielbergs other alien movies, maybe important context lol

edit: thanks for all the responses! i didn't realize that for some this had the hype of being one of the greatest if not the greatest alien movie of all time, and i kind of had the expectations of an average action blockbuster, so while it was a bit better than i expected it was way worse for most. i just hope the message of the movie isn't lost in the messiness around it all, be good to each other :)
