Spielberg gets more disappointing as the years roll by. Here, movie is manufactured and heavy-handed. Could only stay with it for first half hour.

It's very slow, but still brilliant to say the least.

This is the best movie I ever watched. I love it. It keeps me at the edge of my chair all the time. No it is not the thrill, but the passion, the humanity, and the love that made me cry many times. Tom Hanks, I love him, at his top performance ( btw he is always). I have actually a one line comment for this movie, "What a movie".

I just finished watching Bridge of Spies. Before I tell you what I think I just want to say that despite my perceptions, I still think the movie was a decent movie. The acting, cinematography, directing, and script were all superb, and I cannot say enough about Tom Hanks, he truly is one of the best actors in Hollywood. All that aside, the movie was boring. While the acting and directing were well done, there was nothing interesting about what was happening. Just another spy movie - without the action - with a pretty predictable ending. There was no action, no twists, no interesting commentary or argumentative dialogue surrounding the particular political atmosphere at the time. Just a pretty straight forward storyline with nothing to capture, or retain, interest (in terms of the storyline). With that in mind, I don't want to say it was a bad movie because it wasn't. I suppose I just expected more. With that in mind, I would still recommend the movie, so long as one isn't expecting any fireworks...and has had plenty of coffee in advance.
