Steven Spielberg

Andrew O'Hehir on the best movies of the decade Andrew O'Hehir on the best movies of the decade

From Spain to Korea, suburbia to Romania -- my personal favorites in a turbulent time
  • Coppola, Spielberg, Hammer Films and you

    News roundup: I'm back, and so is New York's oh-so-cultured fall fest. Plus: Coppola's controversial "restoration," Hammer Films reborn, and 12 movies you haven't seen (but should have).
  • Do you suffer from blockbuster fatigue?

    As the summer movie season drags on, it's time to ask whether there's a limit to how much hype we can take.
  • "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull"

    Steven Spielberg's beloved adventure series has built its own Temple of Hype -- but the latest installment manages to surprise and delight.
  • Indy and the Martian Inca mummies -- vs. the French!

    "Indy 4" premieres, Harrison Ford charms the Euro-throngs and Cannes surrenders to celebutainment silliness.
  • Yes we Cannes!

    Indiana Jones meets art cinema as the world's leading festival offers its most exciting lineup in years.
  • Guillermo del Toro to make "Hobbit" films: Bleah!

    A director who hates Tolkien, enslaved in New Zealand by a latter-day George Lucas. Whose brilliant idea was this?
  • Indy, Clint and Che hit the Côte d'Azur

    Eastwood's "Changeling" and Soderbergh's four-hour "Che" top an impressive Eurocentric lineup at 61st Cannes festival.
  • From the Riviera to Abu Ghraib

    This week: Cannes announces its selections (almost), Tribeca kicks off, and Errol Morris plumbs the dark secrets behind those torture photos.
  • Cannes rumors: No Coens, but "Indy 4" and "Sex" likely

    Now "Burn After Reading" probably won't premiere in France. Will Spielberg or Sarah Jessica claim opening night?
  • Clinton wins the Spielberg primary

    And Bush isn't the draw that he used to be.
  • "Munich"

    Steven Spielberg tries to untangle the knotty Palestinian-Israeli problem. Does he succeed? And should he be commended just for trying?
  • The war on "Munich"

    Neoconservatives launch a preemptive strike on Spielberg's latest, which dares to break the rules of post-9/11 political correctness.
  • "War of the Worlds"

    Steven Spielberg would like to believe his new alien movie taps into our fears of terrorism. Well, it's frightening all right.
  • "The Terminal"

    Tom Hanks plays a sort of Esperanto Everyman stuck for months at JFK Airport in what is probably the worst-directed film Steven Spielberg has ever made.
  • Why blockbuster flicks suck

    A new documentary on the Trio cable network sums up 30 years of big budgets, blitzkrieg marketing, bad scripts and Kevin Costner.
  • "Catch Me If You Can"

    Leonardo DiCaprio looks great in those '60s threads, but Steven Spielberg's story of a legendary hustler is sadly short on period zip, zowie and va-va-voom.
  • Mouthing off

    Justin explains oral sex crack about Britney; Howard Stern: Pork it over!
  • Trick or tweak

    J.Lo's breast in show; joke's on Madonna; what weenie is Heath Ledger grabbing? Plus: Spielberg mind control!
  • I said what?

    Steven Spielberg clarifies his position on Iraq; Kelly O calls Christina a drag queen and worse; and Calista sniffs Bon Jovi booty.
  • Future sex

    Steven Spielberg has never done sexy well in his films, but "Minority Report" feels wet, alive and throbbing.
