While I am not a big fan of Jaws, I would gladly allow that it was Spielberg's finest achievement. So in essence he moved from the second grade into the kindergarten since then. But given his age it looks like he is heading for nursing home soon. Certainly things like the SPR would set low point in any career.Good thing all his movies made money, else we would be supporting him there... I mean in the home.

C'mon VK, these had a lot going for them. Don't get me wrong, I loved Jaws, and it may be better than some of these, but to imply that Jaws is only work with something to recommend? Nahhhh. IMHO of course.
What can I say? I know you are not the only one who likes his films - his success speaks for itself.BTW - I would not recommend the Jaws to someone simply seeking good films, as I do not rate it highly. I would only suggest it in the context of movie history, as it represents a noticeable step.
If you'd like, I'll gladly leave the room for a short while so that you two can have some privacy. ;^)
LOL - I thought the word was suck not scratch but whatever.You really can't convince all of the people all of the time -- after all there are people who cannot stand the success of some other people. Spielberg is a master of what he does and it seems any genre he tackles he masters.
While I do not share Victor almost totally negative review of Spielberg´s work, my main point is being VERY dissapointed about his last years of filming.
No doubt, he is just now a middle of the way director.
Back then I had some hopes for more.
