"The Fabelmans" was, actually, better than what I was expecting.

As a semi bio of the legendary director and movie creator, Steven Spielberg, the film has that love for cinema feel to it, along with the children innocence mood, mixed with a heavy dose of family drama.

The latter was probably the best part of the movie, as it was seen through the camera lenses, thus, through the eyes of a young boy who discovers that his family isn't as perfect as he thought.

And even though the movie is long, crossing the barrier of two hours running time, it doesn't feel overburden and it is actually easy to watch.

The performances, finally, were great by everyone in the cast.
