Lincoln (2012)

  • Spielberg, Steven
  • 2012, Steven Spielberg, USA
  • 5 Comments

Another commanding performance by Daniel Day-Lewis lifts this uncharacteristically slow-paced and talky Spielberg film from being too self-absorbed in its historical importance.

War Horse (2011)

Some may find this terribly mawkish, but Spielberg is still the undisputed master of emotional manipulation, and I say this with gratitude, because it reminds me of the magic of moviemaking.

Spielberg’s first animated feature is ‘Indiana Jones’ meets ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ in one of the year’s most entertaining movies.

The continuation of one of popular cinema’s enduring franchises is also one of Steven Spielberg’s rare misfires.

Minority Report (2002)

  • Spielberg, Steven
  • 2002, Steven Spielberg, USA
  • 3 Comments

This underrated Philip K. Dick adaptation is an absolute sci-fi gem by Spielberg and a legitimate contender for the most entertaining, cerebral sci-fi thriller of the 2000s decade.

A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)

  • Spielberg, Steven
  • 2001, Steven Spielberg, USA
  • 3 Comments

Spielberg’s warm touch of sentimentality is obvious if reassuring in this sci-fi project that Kubrick was working on before his untimely passing.

Last Crusade, The (1989)

Spielberg’s strong morality tale against greed is as spectacular as it is funny – my favourite of the Indiana Jones films.

Empire of the Sun (1987)

  • Spielberg, Steven
  • 1987, Steven Spielberg, USA

Has its moments of awe-inspiring grandeur, but the film is unable to sustain in its final act despite Spielberg’s assured direction.
