Steven Spielberg on Rotten Tomatoes

Minority Report, 92%
Consensus: An intelligent and visually imaginative film that ranks among Spielberg's best.

Jaws, 100%
Consensus: Jaws remains tense by not showing audiences the shark for the majority of the film, so that when it does, viewers jump out of their seats.

Saving Private Ryan, 94%
Consensus: Anchored by another winning performance from Hanks, Spielberg's unflinchingly realistic war film virtually redefines the genre.

Schindler's List, 96%
Consensus: Schindler's List blends the abject horror of the Holocaust with Steven Spielberg's signature tender humanism to create the director's dramatic masterpiece.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, 89%

Empire of the Sun, 77%

The Color Purple, 81%

Raiders of the Lost Ark, 94%
Consensus: Featuring bravura set pieces, sly humor, and white-knuckle action, Raiders of the Lost Ark is one of the most consummately entertaining adventure pictures of all time.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind, 95%
Consensus: Close Encounters' most iconic bits (the theme, the mashed-potato sculpture, etc.) have been so thoroughly absorbed into the culture that it's easy to forget that its treatment of aliens as peaceful beings rather than warmongering monsters was somewhat groundbreaking in 1977.
