Tom Hanks stars as James Donovan in the incredible story of an ordinary man placed in extraordinary circumstances in DreamWorks Pictures/Fox 2000 PIctures' dramatic thriller BRIDGE OF SPIES, directed by Steven Spielberg.
I will see Tom Hanks in anything. He is one of the most legendary and iconic actors that is still around these days. You know if Tom Hanks is in a movie that it's going to be a GREAT movie. Since I am such a huge fan, you could imagine my excitement about Bridge of Spies. It's hard not to be sucked into a movie trailer when you see that Steven Spielberg is the Director. I must say, this film looks really thrilling. Just from watching the previews, I am on the edge of my seat wondering what is going to happen. The action combined with the fact that this is based on true events, is just too difficult to pass up! This will be a must-see for my boyfriend and I!
Watch the trailer and tell me what you think!
