Agree totally with your general appraisal of Spielberg's work. I greatly admire Stanley Kubrick, an absolutely brilliant artist, but still can't understand his decision (mistake?) in giving A.I. to Spielberg to direct. The first 40 minutes or so plays like a Kubrick film, and it was a great idea, one that Kubrick had developed as a pet project for years. But the rest?...all flash and silly dialogue over substance. It's encouraging to read that some think he will get better in this respect.
