Has anyone seen Empire of the Sun?

Question

It is a Steven Spielberg movie.I've heard someone say that it was Christian Bale's best performance of his career.Is it true?

Answer 1

Great movie.  But can you compare childhood performances with adult ones?

Answer 2

Yes it's a good movie, but no, Christian Bale's best performance was in American Psycho.

Answer 3

yeah, I've seen it, it's a great movie but I forgot some details because I've seen it like many years ago, Christian Bales just a kid there, but he's already a great actor, the story's about the war between Japan and America, as long as I remember..

He's a rich kid there but when the war started he was separated from his parents and lived alone but in the end he was found by the American soldiers and was reunited with his parents again.. (he likes planes)
