One can tell Fellini from the first few frames. So one can tell Spielberg

The second I switched to Pacific it was immediately recognizable, unmistakable Spielberg, it was SPR all over again. It really IS a cookie cutter, as the only difference seems to be the enemy uniforms and some scenery. Spielberg has very recognizable style, which I hate, but someone might like, and he is not trying, or is unable to change it, or even to cover it.

As far as the SPR - I was totally unimpressed with the Omaha Beach scene. To me it was at the level of the Jaws or Friday the 13th. Essentially Spielberg paints like a six-year-old... OK, maybe a fifteen year old... he's got some basic skills, but he doesn't yet have anything to say. And at his age one does not expect anything new from him, he is not that kind of a director. Peter's principle is working, after all, and Spielberg has reached his level of incompetence.
