Review of Bridge of Spies (2015) by Jerome K — 21 Feb 2016
Judged on its own merit (which is how I'm rating it), the production values are excellent, the acting is superb, and the direction is effortless. However, as another Spielberg war drama, something about it just feels too familiar.
Tom Hanks plays the same capable and competent hero who is slightly in over his head but still manages to overcome impossible odds. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that. It's just that some moviegoers looking for more original fare may want to look elsewhere.
