Reviews
“Authentic re-creations of the period, including duck-and-cover clips about a nuclear holocaust that frightened young students, serve as a reminder of a time, not unlike our own, when the threat of terror kept a steady and disturbing beat.” – Dallas Morning News
“Bridge of Spies, which waxes poetic – and occasionally cynically – on patriotism, honor, and duty, echoes in your mind long after the credits roll and begs for a second viewing.” – Associated Press
“Spielberg can't help but make the kind of inspiring, classically constructed drama that we keep being told Hollywood doesn't produce anymore. Thank goodness he still does.” – Washington Post
