Agreed. The setting was good and the references to "atomic America" and McCarthyism are right on the money, but the "swinging from the vines" thing was simply ridiculous. Pure gratuitous excuse to use stupid CGI effects, which is a trend of the last 10-15 years of movies that I utterly can't stand. Psychic stuff? Extra-dimensional beings? Alien spaceships in Peru? Gimmee a break. I know Speilburg is known for over-the-top fanciful plots and trying to fuse them with realistic scenarios, but this one just seemed really contrived and forced to me.
