It’s been three years since Lincoln hit theaters and snagged some Oscars, but Steven Spielberg is finally back with the much-anticipated historical epic, Bridge of Spies. He’s got a riveting true story, a Coen Brothers script and Tom Hanks leading the film. You can’t really go wrong with that combination, but it doesn’t guarantee Academy Award potential either. Bridge of Spies is a quality film featuring loads of commendable work, but Spielberg’s glossy and exceedingly upbeat take on the material might make it more of a crowdpleaser than an Oscar contender.
