The Fabelmans

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, a história é fraca, os personagens sao fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes para fazer o filme ser bom.

A film taht didnt catch my attention until 10 minutes in or so, that has know become one of my fauvorite films. As always, Spielberg sensitivity is what makes this tale about a boy that wants to make films, something bigger than life, and incredibly enjoyable. The way Spielberg portraits the relationship of his parents, is truly emotionally mature, and sad to watch. The cherry on the pies is the ending, instantly iconic, with a really funny David Lynch. Overall a truly joy of a film, that I think deserved more recognision.

A wonderful introspective telling of Steven Spielbergs upbringing through the eyes of Spielberg himself. Fantastic!

This has became one of my favorite movies of all time

Two stars because I like Paul Dano and the other guy's performance. But really, this is a vanity piece. We hang in there because we know it's Steven Spielberg's life and believe it has to get better, there has to be a deeper message. It doesn't and there isn't.

I will keep my review short and to the point To me the film divides into two parts Part 1 the family in the east coast 1955 to 1961 Part 2 The California chapter 1962- 1966 The first part is a snooze-I found myself checking my cell phone and wishing I was on the street eating a Falafel (I was in Tel Aviv) The second part is way better with riveting tensions and dramas planting the seed of the tree that will dominate the movie landscape the genius we know as Steven Spielberg- Colorful, dramatic albeit the antisemitic sentiments expressed toward him by his college mates was way over the top and resembles more 1935 Germany than 1964 California. (Calling him Bagelman etc and harming him physically) that really did not happen in the sunshine state at that era as far as I experienced. Now my personal feeling acting wise no one shines, Personally Michelle Williams who plays the mother is an actress I always hated, an ugly duckling with 1966 Guiding Light acting style and the personal charm of a Viennese Schnitzel (She once played M Monroe in a bio epic a casting decisionI I find criminal) Williams is hard to watch especially here. The boy who played S Spielberg was OK, Daddy was good as well All and all rent it and it will not be a huge regret if you do not like. I am not surprised this soufflé failed to rise and tanked at the box office

I love this movie so much! The music, the cinematography, the actors are divine! It is a masterpiece and a gift from Steven to be so courageous and kind and generous to share his story with us. A MUST SEE!

Steven's autobiography movie Shows how his love for cinema was built As a son of an engineering father and an artist mother, working in the movie industry was obvious. It's in the genes!

If there is a film that explains why movie directors become directors is this. Director Steven Spielberg does a great job on the showing how movies are made and the amount of work every scene takes in order to make it perfect. Add to it showing the beauty of a movie not just in entertaining aspects but in artistic one as well. For film lovers and artistic persons this is a movie I recommend for you.

For all of his famed film biography - it's too bad he chose not to show him sneaking on to the Universal lot and setting up in an office - this is "just" his biography. That's okay, but for cinephiles, everything leads to the last scene with Ford. It's a magical, mystical moment that could only happen in Hollywood. I loved the visual joke at the end, just for moviemakers. For anyone, particularly Angelenos who grew up in the shadow of Hollywood during that time, it speaks to a love for the artform bonded to a city like none other. He even Included the cliche' wet street.
