MOVIE OF THE WEEK: Empire of the Sun


"Empire of the Sun" is a solid effort by Steven Spielberg. While it's not his best work, it still brings much of the ambitious Spielberg style of filmmaking. It's always great to see today's A-list actors before they hit the big time, with Christian Bale playing an overzealous (almost too much) young British expatriate who is separated from his family at the beginning of World War II. I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but it had good cinematography, good music and a good story.
