About this episode
Spoilers for Disclosure Day.
Jason and Rachel review Disclosure Day, Steven Spielberg’s new alien movie starring Emily Blunt, Josh O’Connor, Colman Domingo, Colin Firth, and Wyatt Russell.
There are things to like here: Emily Blunt is great, Colman Domingo remains a human weighted blanket, and a few sequences feel like vintage Spielberg. But the movie’s big alien reveal, TV station climax, confusing character logic, and “world peace / just listen” ending left us deeply frustrated.
We talk Close Encounters comparisons, little green men, thumb drives, World War III, invisible fire trucks, AI-era skepticism, David Koepp, Spielberg nostalgia, and why Disclosure Day ends up as a disappointed thumbs down.
