Re: Ranking Spielberg
Spoiler Warning
Minority Report is typical of later Spielberg work in that it was a beautiful, well crafted movie that could've been a great movie if he'd made a few different choices. It had the perfect ending, with Cruise frozen in stasis and the bad guy getting away with it, but that wasn't good enough. They had to ruin the movie by giving it the happy studio ending. There were also a couple of rather obvious holes in the plot big enough to drive a truck through.
Indiana Jones #1
Close Encounters #2
Jaws #3
Schlindler's List I find impossible to rate due to subject matter, but it's one of the most emotionally devastating films ever made.
