Steven Spielberg (1942, Always, War Horse) returns to sci-fi spectacle with Ready Player One adapted from Ernest Cline's novel.  A heady nostalgia trip through the 1980's set in the near future, Spielberg gets to name check dozens of '80s classics while trying to mount a contemporary action film.  Whether he succeeds is a matter of opinion.
