Film Review: Knock at the Cabin

Film Review: The Fabelmans

This review is spoiler-free. There is no doubt that Steven Spielberg is one of the finest filmmakers of all-time, and by his own admission, The Fabelmans is the most personal film he has ever made, taking inspiration from his own life and being semi-autobiographic.
