Big thumbs-up for "Bridge of Spies," the new Spielberg/Hanks flick. [View all]

We saw it today, and thought it was absolutely terrific. You know, if you want to talk about movies which make America look good in the best possible way, one "Bridge of Spies" is worth at least 100 times that of "American Sniper." Highly recommended.
