Steven Spielberg’s Sci-Fi Comeback Takes Aim at a J.J. Abrams Classic in Box Office Debut

After eight long years, director Steven Spielberg is back with a new sci-fi movie, Disclosure Day. While he has proven himself to be a master at virtually every genre in existence, there's something about a new Spielberg sci-fi film that simply can't be replicated. The new movie finds the legendary filmmaker revisiting themes and ideas he explored decades ago, in movies such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind and E.T. the Extraterrestrial, although this one shares more in common with two of Spielberg's underrated sci-fi films — A.I. Artificial Intelligence and Minority Report. The movie is exceeding expectations at the box office in its opening weekend, on the strength of massive audience interest and positive reviews.
